Core Business

Primary Industry: Performance Marketing / Ad Creative Technology
Target Customers: B2B — brands and marketing teams needing high-volume, data-driven ad creative for platforms like Meta, TikTok, and other paid social channels.
Mission Statement: To combine human-made creative with software intelligence to build a "living map of what works for your brand," making every ad smarter than the last.

Products & Services

Framework (Software): A proprietary creative operating system that tags every ad by hook, angle, format, talent, and platform; launches structured tests at 95% statistical significance; auto-scales winners and turns off losers; and surfaces creative intelligence patterns after 10 data points per tag.
WillBot (AI Agent): An AI performance marketing agent that integrates with ad platforms, analyzes creative, and delivers actionable insights in natural language. Designed to replace repetitive tasks like client questions and performance analysis.
NewForm Studio (Service): A full-scale, in-house production studio ("NOMAD" — 5,000 sq ft) that produces 2,500+ human-made ads per month across 30–400 original ads per brand. Includes real producers, editors, strategists, sets, talent, and scripts.
Creative Ontology: A research-backed taxonomy system that tags every ad across dimensions like hook, format, audience, claim, and talent to surface winning patterns.

Market Standing

Valuation: Not publicly available (private, bootstrapped company).
Key Metric: 41,000+ ads tagged on the platform; 2,500+ ads produced per month; 47+ brands served.
Notable Investors/Partners: No external investors confirmed (appears bootstrapped). Partners include major ad platforms (Meta, TikTok) and a growing roster of performance marketing brands.
Growth Signals: Headcount grew 100% year-over-year to ~47 employees as of mid-2026; operates in 11 countries; launched WillBot (AI agent) which received significant LinkedIn engagement (6,898 reactions); expanded studio capacity to 5,000 sq ft; currently running 16 active job postings.

Competitive Advantages

Human + Software Model: Unlike pure AI generation tools, NewForm uses human creatives (writers, editors, producers) to make ads and software to learn from them. This avoids the quality ceiling of fully automated creative.
Volume + Statistical Rigor: Produces 2,500+ ads/month and tests every variant at 95% confidence — a scale and scientific approach most agencies or in-house teams cannot match.
Creative Ontology: A proprietary tagging system that creates a "living map" of what works, making each batch of creative smarter than the last.
Forward Deployed Creatives: Embedded creative teams that work closely with client brands, combining deep brand knowledge with real-time performance data.

Strategic Focus

Scaling the AI Agent (WillBot): Expanding the capabilities of their AI agent to handle more client-facing tasks and deeper platform integrations.
Multi-Language Expansion: Already shipping ads in 6 languages natively (no dubbing/subtitles) — a key differentiator for global brands.
Deepening the Studio + Software Loop: Continuously improving the feedback loop between human-produced creative and software-driven testing/learning.
Hiring for Scale: Actively growing engineering, creative, and account management teams to support increasing client volume.
