The $100Bn+ content management industry is broken. Over 90% of the world's content data was created in the last two years. Content runs our lives / global commerce and the tools that currently exist just aren't up to the task.

We spent the last 18 months speaking to CMO’s from some of the world’s biggest companies. (Google, Netflix, Apple, Lenovo, Nike) The proliferation of content has created serious unintended consequences and AI will only make it worse. Organisations are losing control of their information&data. Ecosystem visibility is poor, regulatory&risk management is outdated and brand equity protection is non-existent. It's a multibillion-dollar problem, and everyone has it.

MedialakeAI is a content data platform enabling organisations to index every digital asset they own across complex siloed platforms. Its unique technology connects every platform and piece of content into a transparent highly searchable database - uncovering deep-level data that improves productivity, boosts regulatory compliance and acts as a platform to deploy cutting-edge automation + AI.
