Revolutionizing Video Ads with AI

The interview with Alex Persky-Stern, CEO of Waymark, explores the company's AI-powered video production platform, which simplifies ad creation for media companies and advertisers. Waymark automates video generation by pulling assets from business websites, leveraging AI to create motion graphics, voiceovers, and scripting, while integrating with Shutterstock for additional content. The platform primarily serves TV, streaming, and ad tech industries, enabling efficient video ad creation for mid-market and local advertisers. Persky-Stern highlights Waymark’s shift towards automated, large-scale video generation and its expansion into ad tech. The company follows a SaaS-based pricing model and sees platforms, not advertisers, as the key stakeholders in AI-powered ad creation. Addressing concerns about AI limitations, he emphasizes Waymark’s focus on real business assets rather than purely AI-generated visuals. Looking ahead, he foresees the rise of automated, data-optimized video content as a major industry shift.
