It was Pirouz that came up with the idea: “What if we helped consumers to read content from a brand, instead of forcing them to click on a banner ad?” This initial idea was the start of inPowered.

Since then inPowered has grown to become the AI platform delivering business outcomes with content marketing. Powered by Artificial Intelligence and machine learning, the company’s Content Intelligence and Content Distribution solutions allow marketers to drive real ROI with Content Marketing – positively changing brand perception, increasing action taken onsite, lead generation, and user engagement.
