Clinch operates as a software-as-a-service (SaaS) provider in the advertising technology sector, offering a platform for omnichannel campaign activation and personalization. The company was co-founded in 2012 by CEO Oz Etzioni and CTO Raz Peter. Etzioni’s background includes leading user experience and innovation teams at major agencies like MRM//McCann, where he managed digital strategies for global brands. This experience in user engagement and design informed the development of Clinch. Peter brings over 25 years of experience in management and engineering, including roles at Elbit Systems and service in the Israel Defense Forces.
The company's core offering is 'Flight Control,' an AI-powered platform designed to centralize and automate the entire advertising campaign lifecycle. This platform serves marketing professionals, digital advertisers, and brands in sectors such as retail and e-commerce. Clinch's business model recently shifted to a fixed monthly fee structure with its "Unlimited Ad Serving" offering, moving away from traditional volume-based CPM pricing. This allows clients predictable costs for unlimited ad serving across various channels, including Connected TV (CTV), display, social media, and Digital-Out-of-Home (DOOH).
The platform's key features include Dynamic Creative Optimization (DCO), which uses data and AI to automate and personalize ad experiences at scale. It allows for the integration of external data, such as media performance and offline conversions, to optimize creative elements in real-time. Clinch's technology, including its proprietary rendering engine 'Clinch Xenon' and 'VideoAI', enables the creation of numerous personalized ad variations from a single creative asset. This approach is designed to improve campaign efficiency, reduce production costs, and enhance performance by delivering tailored messages to specific audiences. The company has raised a total of $13 million in funding over two rounds, including a $10 million Series A round in 2021 led by D Squared Capital.
