About Origin

Advanced data-driven audiences, messaging, and media targeting and forecasting on LinkedIn start with Origin, our proprietary data platform that integrates with the LinkedIn API ecosystem to provide wide and deep insights for the delivery of client strategy and media planning for LinkedIn.

Origin provides access to the world’s largest source of buyer data and unlocks the deepest and richest intelligence about your target audiences. The insights and outputs are integrated with our GTM and media strategies to provide clients with more advanced and personalized LinkedIn campaigns. By integrating custom GenAI platforms and prompt engines, we can go even further to identify patterns in the data and uncover content themes, messaging narratives and ideas.
