Alex Collmer
Founder & CEO
VidMob Gives Back
Making measurable impact
CEO Alex Collmer does’t just see VidMob as a salve to the “creative friction underlying complex communications” like video and AR — he sees it as a vessel for generosity. The martech’s foundation, VidMob Gives, has donated free creative collateral and intelligence technology to hundreds of non-profit organizations. Collmer looked beyond cutting checks for a way to create meaningful impact with VidMobbers, and only asked for one thing in return: measurability. “We donate technology and labor, but we ask that they measure and share the results so that we continue to improve,” said Collmer.

Finding that right mix of ambition and drive without eliminating the human side of being a team is the thing that I’m most proud of at VidMob.
James Kupernik
CTO
Keeping Creative Human
Building Tech with Creators in Mind
Chief Technology Officer James Kupernik defines VidMob as a technology-led service company. “Our work is not an effort to replace humans, but to use technology to give our clients back the time to focus on higher-value tasks,” Kupernik said. In building the solutions that analyze millions of pieces of content, Kupernik and his team work always with the end user in mind. “Whether it is looking at their ideal working days, preferred volume of work, average time off or experiences with each client, we’ve used technology to prioritize the value creators enjoy through our platform,” he said.

Thematically, we’re very focused on bringing more automation to our existing services — helping clients understand if their assets are built for performance and arrive at a final creative output faster.
Jill Gray
EVP of Global Client Solutions
Creative Reimagined
A New Age for Intelligent Creative Strategy
AI programs have aced objectivity: identifying colors, the presence of humans and more. But subjective AI observations remain a dream — one that Jill Gray, EVP of global client solutions, hopes to realize. “Advertising is more than a string of objects: Is the key message emotional? How is the story told? What does the sum of the parts really mean?” she said. VidMob aims to provide insights on the elements that make up a larger creative strategy. “We love projects like this: We’re pioneering intelligence that delivers the fastest path to impactful creative for our clients,” Gray said.

We approach every project with a learning mindset. What works today won’t necessarily work next year — bring it on!
