Salary benchmarks
Our take
Sine Digital is a performance marketing agency for the experiences sector. The company uses data science and technology to deliver campaigns based on audience insights that support sustainable, better returns and reduce marketing "wastage".
It is this insight-first approach that makes the company stand out, as well as using innovations in tech to drive its marketing services. For example, Sine leverages AI to help develop creative assets, and supplies real-time market research so clients can adapt their strategies where needed.
Sine Digital certainly has promise, but it will take time to see how the space responds to its offering. An injection of Seed funding will certainly help it make a space for itself, as the company invests in US expansion and the further development of its tech.
