LG Electronics' PRISM AI won three honors at the 2026 AMEC Global Communication Effectiveness Awards, including Gold in the Best Use of AI in Communication Measurement category, the company said in a PR Newswire announcement on November 11, 2026. LG Electronics is a South Korean public manufacturer of premium OLED TVs, AI-powered home appliances, commercial HVAC, vehicle components and emerging physical AI and robotics products.
How PRISM AI Earned Its AMEC Honors
PRISM AI also took Silver in the Best Use of a Measurement Framework category and Silver in the Step Change Award, which recognizes the best improvement of a measurement journey. The platform was recognized for data-handling and impact measurement that helped expand LG's media monitoring from 53 to 200 countries and cut reporting time from about one month to one hour.
The 2026 AMEC awards used a threshold-based judging model, evaluating each entry against fixed criteria for excellence rather than against other entries. Judges were not permitted to use generative AI tools to support or inform their evaluations, and the judging placed the greatest emphasis on real-world effectiveness: how reliable the findings are, whether they were acted on, and how they shape future communications planning and strategy.
PRISM AI is built around three core concepts from AMEC's Barcelona Principles 3.0: outcomes over outputs, quality plus quantity, and transparency. It uses a dual-metric system made up of the PR Score and the Communications Impact Index. Its AI-powered filtering removes more than 78 percent of spam and irrelevant content with over 95 percent accuracy, and tracked brands have grown from 5 to 30.
"Winning three AMEC Awards for PRISM AI is especially meaningful, not only because it highlights our efforts in advancing AI-powered communications measurement, but also because the recognition comes directly from the PR industry's most respected global body," said Cho Jung-bum, head of the AX Center at LG Electronics. "We will continue to refine PRISM AI's methodology while expanding its capabilities and scope, further enhancing its value as a solution for driving better business decisions."
The AMEC recognition follows the platform's win in the Best AI Tool or Product category at the 2026 IN2 SABRE Awards Asia-Pacific, held in Singapore this August.
