AI agents

Unusual

AI agents are the newest audience brands need to speak to, but go-to-market teams don't have the tools to understand how they form opinions or make decisions. Unusual helps brands in the Fortune 100 and scale-ups like Change.org and Astronomer drive more sales and win more market share by shifting how AI models perceive their offerings. We work closely with every brand to (1) identify the root cause of AI misperception, (2) align on marketing, sales, and product strategies that appeal to agents,
