Our take
Writing code to create digital content often comes with complications and expense. Ceros was created to eliminate these issues, by providing customers with a no-code design platform.
It allows marketing and design teams to create animated content on a collaborative canvas, without having to rely on developers. As such, the Ceros platform has proved a hit with an impressive list of enterprise customers including United Airlines, Condé Nast, J.P. Morgan Chase, Fitbit, Bloomberg, and Mashable.
Competition in the MarTech market may be fierce, with rivals including Ion and Uberflip, but Ceros sets itself apart as a platform that allows customers to produce this kind of content at scale and with fast turnaround times. Lately, the company announced "Gemma", a creative AI sidekick capable of generating new ideas, optimizing existing designs, and automating tedious tasks, with the aim of freeing up users to focus on their own creative vision.
