Sizzle Insights · Press · Recognition

What we publish. What the press says. What the work has won.

Three LinkedIn newsletters from the team that builds the work. Press releases as they ship. And forty-seven years of recognition behind it all. One page, three windows on the company.

3 active newsletters  ·  Press releases  ·  265 creative & technical awards

Why three.

The Sizzle® platform sits at the intersection of three categories the rest of the industry treats as separate disciplines: how AI looks people in the eye (Synth Humans), how AI runs inside the physical world (Edge AI), and how AI changes the way brands buy attention (AI Interactive Advertising). One thesis. Three lenses.

Each newsletter is written for a different reader and a different week of the buying journey. Together they cover the full Sizzle® point of view — from the AI that delivers the conversation, to the infrastructure that makes it real, to the commerce model that makes it accountable.

All three live on LinkedIn. Read what’s relevant. Subscribe to the ones that move your business.

01
AI Interactive Advertising

AI Interactive Advertising.

The end of the passive ad. Where brand storytelling becomes a two-way conversation and the unit of measurement shifts from impression to interaction. The craft, the placements, and the deployment patterns that are rewriting the advertising playbook.

ForAgency leaders, brand marketers, media buyers, and creative directors who see where advertising is going and want to ship it now.
What it covers
  • Interactive AI ad units and how to plan a campaign around them
  • Synth Human® brand ambassadors as a media buy
  • Attribution: the moment a viewer becomes a customer
02
EdgeBox®

Edge AI Delivering Real ROI.

Where AI infrastructure meets the P&L. The strategy, architecture, and deployment patterns of Edge AI — intelligence that runs where the moment happens, with the latency, privacy, and resilience that the cloud can’t guarantee.

ForCTOs, CIOs, infrastructure leads, and operators measuring AI by what it earns, not what it costs.
What it covers
  • Edge AI deployments and their measurable returns
  • The architecture choices that separate winners from research projects
  • Privacy, compliance, and the case for keeping data in the venue
03
Synth Humans®

Why Read

Four reasons to subscribe. All practical.

These aren’t marketing roundups. Each edition is written by the team that builds and ships the work — with the receipts to back it up.

01

Written by builders, not commentators.

Every edition comes from the team that designs, deploys, and runs the work — not a content desk paraphrasing other people’s coverage.

02

Real deployments, not hypotheticals.

The case studies, metrics, and architecture decisions come from actual projects shipping right now — UN COP 16, Sizzle Golf, hospitality, retail, civic.

03

Three lenses for three audiences.

Subscribe to one, two, or all three. Read the ones that fit your role. Skip the ones that don’t. We won’t feel hurt.

04

Free, on LinkedIn, easy to leave.

No email gate, no marketing sequence, no aggressive nurturing. Unsubscribe with one click. The work earns the readership.
