02 / Team

26 years of history,
a team that
reinvents itself.

Some of us started more than 20 years ago; others brought their talent along the way. The essence hasn't changed: we still debate for hours and laugh over every lunch, because we feel the same passion for advertising and digital as we did on day one.

The tools have changed, but the drive to create and the energy to innovate haven't.

03 / What we do · PQ + Neural,iA

technology that learns.people who decide.brands that matter.

AI is now the industry baseline; what sets your brand apart is relevance. We bring 26 years of creative craft to Neural,iA, our own platform, so every campaign learns from the last and connects better with your audience and with culture.

Deep Brand Voice

your brand's brain.

We train agents on your brand's DNA: its tone, its narratives, its territories and its limits. They learn how your brand speaks, remember what works and carry it into every piece. So it sounds the same on every channel, and every campaign comes out sharper. In every key decision, there's always a person in the loop.

Synthetic agents

your audience, before it hears you.

We build a synthetic replica of your audience: populations grounded in real data that mirror its habits, interests, emotions and ways of deciding. With them we test messages, campaigns, products and launches before they go to market, compare options and anticipate reactions. Less risk and more certainty when it's time to invest.

// What we do
  1. 01 / Strategy & Insight

    understand.

    • Brand & Communication Strategy

      We define what your brand has to say, to whom, and why now.

      To get there, we bring together your brand's DNA, a read on culture, audience intelligence and your business goals in one strategy that gives meaning and direction to every piece and every channel.

    • Audience Intelligence & Social Listening

      We listen to your audience's conversations to understand, in real time, their habits, tastes, tensions, pain points and desires.

      That knowledge continuously feeds your synthetic agents and turns into actionable insights, not a PDF nobody opens.

    with Neural,iAWhat we hear trains your synthetic audience.

  2. 02 / Brand & Reputation

    build.

    • Branding, Naming & Identity

      We build and renew brands: names, territories, verbal and visual identity, and communication systems that last and hold up at every touchpoint.

      Before settling on the final route, we test every option with your synthetic audience to validate its impact with real data.

    • Corporate & Institutional Communication

      We develop positioning, press, thought leadership and end-to-end communication for public and private organizations.

      We handle every message with a strategic eye on reputation, protecting institutional impact and perception at every touchpoint.

    with Neural,iAEvery option is tested with your synthetic audience before you choose.

  3. 03 / Creative & Content

    create.

    • Creative Ideas & Campaigns

      We create concepts and integrated campaigns built to break into culture, not just take up space.

      We start from your brand's Deep Brand Voice and validate ideas with your synthetic audience, while judgment, sensitivity and creative direction always stay in our team's hands.

    • Social Media & Content

      We plan, write, design and publish across every platform in your brand's voice, at the speed of conversation.

      We run on a continuous learning loop: every post teaches the system something new and sharpens the next one.

    • Audiovisual Production

      We produce commercials, corporate videos, reels and content for every screen, from script to post-production.

      We combine the quality of traditional production with the agility of generative tools to gain speed and scale, without ever giving up cinematic and aesthetic judgment.

    • Performance & Digital Media
