ax3

Advertising Technoloy SaaS: multiplying ad results (neuroscience)

built ax3 after working at the world’s largest ad agency. At his former job, he saw problems in advertising: old methods, poor results, and unfulfilled potential. After getting his PhD, Demetrakos applied new neuroscience to marketing.

ax3’s approach groups audiences by how their brains work, creates targeted messages that drive decisions, and calls this “customer creation.”

Christopher believes AI will replace most ad agency work in 2 years, except ax3’s brain-focused approach.

Highlights

  • Entry barriers: a functional, proven and unique system.
  • Ask: USD 3M. A successful exit can be expected within 2 years.
  • Use of funds: further developing the user interface, sales & marketing
