DEDUCIVE DISRUPTION
At Deducive, we believe data can make us more human.
We're applying traditional analytics and new machine learning techniques to help growing brands have more meaningful, honest conversations — and make better decisions with their money.
We’re turning the traditional advertising model upside down. Rather than use data just to track results of creative, we start with analytics to drive the creative.
Our custom-built clickstream analytics systems make it possible to measure, plan, and predict on a scale and specificity never before possible. By combining creativity and data science in one process, we lower risks to action and encourage new creative directions that challenge the status quo.
MISSION POSSIBLE
Deducive was founded by veteran entrepreneurs and marketers. We came together because we saw too much money wasted in the name of brand building and too little understanding of what data can do.
Our team of consultants, creative strategists, and data scientists are based in Washington, DC and Manchester, UK.
