Unser Team

Optimise new packaging design

A top 3 FMCG company is saving millions in research and ensuring in-market success for their packaging re-designs by automating the evaluation of packs.

Get feedback on key effectiveness drivers

We leverage insight from neuroscience on how the brain processes packaging and what the success drivers are, so that you can win at the point of sale. Our tool provides a set of dedicated AI modules that predict how the pack delivers on the key effectiveness drivers. Stand-alone and on the shelf. Fast, cost-effective and at scale.

Trained and validated with human data

We leverage machine learning and deep learning AI models to predict how consumers will process your packaging. Together, the AI models are trained with over 1Bn human data points. Validation is already part of the training process: 80% of the data is used to train the model and the remaining 20% is used to validate accuracy.
