Starfish is the Brand and Creative Intelligence™ agency that strategically builds brands for the rapidly evolving integration of the human and AI universe. Headquartered in New York with offices in France and Florida, we are pioneering the new era of brand building, and seek to be the leading firm in the world built to articulate, design, and
activate brands across the human and AI dimensions. For more than 20 years, Starfish has built brands on a single, durable conviction: a brand is not what an organization says. It is the sum of every experience it creates and its customers encounter. That principle relies on Brand Coherence and has guided every engagement we have ever delivered for the world’s most formidable brands such as PwC, Gallup, Dunkin’, ADL, Baxter, Avis, Principal, Samsung, and hundreds of other organizations that lead their markets. We practice across four expertise areas: Brand Experience is the discipline of designing every touchpoint as part of one integrated brand. Brand Soul is the emotional resonance a brand creates, what AI cannot generate, and what only humans can architect. Brand Coherence is the consistency of brand expression across all the channels and modes of interaction in which the brand operates. Brand Intelligence is the practice of building brands that are simultaneously compelling to human audiences and interpretable, discoverable, and authoritative to AI systems and LLMs. Since our founding, we have practiced these disciplines across the physical and digital worlds. We are now expanding them natively into the AI world. Starfish. One integrated practice. Starfish. Strategically masterful. Creatively human. Technologically-powered.
