Built on 2B+ real user prompts and growing, Profound’s data shows you what people ask AI and what the models say back. Profound's AI Marketer joins that data with deep context about our customers to find the opportunities worth acting on, and then puts agents to work: automating reporting, drafting content, auditing pages for readability, running competitive research. It measures what works and gets better every day.

As an Account Executive focused on agencies, you will own the sales cycle with creative, media, and digital agencies that help the world’s biggest brands shape their use of AI.
