Helping to determine the effect designs have on their audiences, our Startup of the Week for this week is Dragonfly AI.
The startup helps to optimise how effective visual content is with AI-powered insight – very handy for creative teams and brands wanting to up their content across any channel.
Dragonfly AI was founded in 2018 by David Mitchell and Mark Bainbridge. Both David and Mark were inspired to create a way for businesses to be seen amidst the saturated, competitive online content market we see today.
Using cutting-edge neuroscience, the startup can accurately analyse content to see what first grabs an audience’s attention. With this, businesses can gain a deeper, more accurate understanding of how the design of their content impacts the attention of their audiences, eliminating guesswork and enabling them to make appropriate, effective improvements.
