About Us At MAI (pronounced “my”), we're on a mission to democratize advanced advertising technology. We believe that cutting-edge marketing tools, once exclusive to large enterprises with massive budgets, should be accessible to everyone. Our platform uses AI agents to automate and optimize performance marketing, empowering small and mid-sized businesses to scale their ad spend profitably without the need for an agency or endless hours of manual campaign management.
Founded by ad platform veterans from Google and Instacart, we've successfully raised a $25 million Seed funding round led by Kleiner Perkins to accelerate our growth. This capital will be used to expand our product and engineering teams, bringing our vision of intelligent, autonomous marketing to life. Our AI agents have already proven their value, helping clients drive 40% more sales and managing millions in monthly Google Ads spend. Our client waitlist is growing by the day and we couldn’t be more excited about building the future of growth marketing.
