Powered by Stagwell’s proprietary data and designed for one-to-one personalization, the platform learns from every interaction to deliver responses shaped around each individual customer. The outcome is an AI workforce that feeds directly into an enterprise stack and delivers human-level tailored experiences that traditional systems lack.
Enterprises can deploy ready-made solutions or customize solutions for their own workflows, including:
- Sales and revenue
- Customer support
- Retention and renewals
- Payments and operations
- Surveys and feedback

NEW YORK, Nov. 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Stagwell (NASDAQ: STGW) today announced new details on the privacy protective technology that will power its groundbreaking, industry-first AI and data platform. Through Stagwell’s partnership with Harvard University’s OpenDP, Stagwell and Palantir will implement novel differential privacy technologies to ensure privacy for all customers.
As announced in early November 2025, the new Palantir-Stagwell solution offers Stagwell clients access to a central hub for marketing that enables a wide range of use cases, including agentic-led audience enablement optimization and campaign management. The platform, powered by AI, allows large enterprises to sift through tens of millions of records to identify, segment, and better understand audiences in minutes — helping improve brand performance strategies and maximize overall ROI before launching campaigns.
“We believe privacy must be built into our products and solutions from the start – not something you bolt on later,” said Mark Penn, Chairman and CEO of Stagwell. “That’s why we’ve teamed up with Harvard’s OpenDP to uphold rigorous protection at every step.”
“We are excited to bring OpenDP’s differential privacy technology to Stagwell’s business and customers,” said Gary King, Weatherhead University Professor and co-director of OpenDP at Harvard. “This collaboration will create real value for Stagwell’s product for the future of marketing and should also help improve our privacy-protective methods available to all.”
Harvard University’s OpenDP project provides a rigorously engineered suite of differential privacy technologies — a mathematical framework that adds controlled statistical noise to data, ensuring that individual-level information remains unidentifiable while still enabling accurate aggregate analysis. This is the same foundational technology used by the U.S. Census Bureau and has been validated in high-stakes legal and policy contexts, including by the U.S. Supreme Court. Stagwell and Palantir’s adoption of OpenDP on this partnership underscores both companies’ commitment to transparent, academically validated privacy standards, marking a significant advancement in the responsible and scalable use of sensitive data for individuals and brands.
“During my nearly four decades working at Microsoft and IBM, we recognized privacy was a critical feature that all customers deserve. At Stagwell, it’s no different. We appreciate that privacy done right adds value to customers and allows us to maintain trust with shareholders and employees alike,” shared John Kahan, Chief AI Officer of Stagwell. “Data privacy is core to our DNA.”
The Palantir-Stagwell partnership is already seeing client adoption of its early MVP model in the United States.
About Harvard University’s OpenDP Project
OpenDP is a community effort led by Harvard Professors Gary King and Salil Vadhan to build trustworthy, open-source software tools for statistical analysis of sensitive private data. These tools, which are called OpenDP, offer the rigorous protections of differential privacy for the individuals who may be represented in confidential data and statistically valid methods of analysis for researchers who study the data. See OpenDP.org.

One login. Every major AI model. Fully customizable assistants for modern marketing teams.
NEW YORK, Oct. 21, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Today, The Marketing Cloud, a part of the Stagwell (NASDAQ: STGW) network, announced the public launch of Agent Cloud—a secure, unified platform that simplifies access to the world’s leading AI tools and purpose-built marketing assistants. Designed for security, flexibility, and ease of use, Agent Cloud gives brands and agencies instant access to top multimodal LLMs and image/video tools (from GPT-5 to Gemini 2.5 Pro and Veo3) without the hassle of juggling multiple subscriptions.
As AI adoption accelerates across the marketing industry, marketing organizations struggle to balance innovation with governance and scale. Agent Cloud solves this challenge by offering a single, secure entry point to the leading AI models, eliminating the need for fragmented “bring-your-own-AI” approaches and ensuring compliance with client data requirements.
Agent Cloud empowers marketers to safely and efficiently build, deploy, and manage AI-powered workflows across creative, media, comms, and market research teams. It also enables the creation of custom AI assistants that can be shared across an organization, setting the groundwork for fully agentic workflows in the near future, where AI collaborates seamlessly with people.
Key benefits of Agent Cloud include:
- Work securely, innovate confidently: Security is essential, especially when proprietary client data is at stake. None of your organization’s data within Agent Cloud is used to train any LLMs.
- Stay at the forefront of AI innovation: Agent Cloud provides entry to GPT-5, Claude Sonnet 4, Grok 4, and Gemini 2.5 Pro, as well as image and video tools like Imagen and Veo3, with more integrations on the way.
- Empower teams with custom assistants: An intuitive interface allows users to build their own custom AI assistants powered by their LLM of choice, which can then be shared across an organization.
- Simplify billing, amplify savings: Finance no longer needs to process dozens of subscriptions for individual products. And after an annual base fee, your team only pays for the AI tools you’re actually using.
“Agent Cloud unlocks the full range of what AI tools can do for modern marketers,” says Elspeth Rollert, CEO of The Marketing Cloud. “It removes the guesswork and lets your team dive right into the applications and use cases that drive impact. Heading into 2026, it also gives organizations the foundation they need to compete in a world of increasingly more agentic AI.”
Early users of the beta version of Agent Cloud are effusive about the benefits, including how the product drives AI adoption across organizations that are still feeling tentative about this powerful tech.
“The Marketing Cloud has knocked it out of the park with Agent Cloud,” says Jim Stiefelmaier, Innovation Strategy Director at Yamamoto. “Having instant access to all the latest AI models, from GPT-5 to Gemini 2.5 Pro, in one secure, centralized platform has been a game-changer. The ability to seamlessly switch between models has boosted our team’s productivity, facilitated AI adoption, and helped streamline our workflows. I’m excited to see how The Marketing Cloud continues to innovate and evolve this valuable ecosystem.”
“Our agency would not be able to scale our adoption of AI at the rate we need to without a product like Agent Cloud,” says Michael Lamp, Chief Digital & Social Officer of Hunter. “It’s giving us the confidence to speed up our internal AI roadmaps and bring world-class research and media tools to the fingertips of our staff members around the world. It’s the definition of working smarter with technology.”
Agent Cloud is now available to marketers worldwide. The Marketing Cloud team is at ANA Masters of Marketing in Orlando from October 21–24 to coincide with the launch.
To celebrate the debut of this powerful new marketing tech, The Marketing Cloud also published a limited-edition booklet: The Robots Are Coming: A Guide for the Future of AI and Martech. It includes insights from leaders across the brand, as well as 2026 agentic AI predictions from The Marketing Cloud CEO Elspeth Rollert and CTO Mansoor Basha, Stagwell CEO and Chairman Mark Penn, Stagwell Chief AI Officer John Kahan, Code and Theory CEO Dan Gardner, and others.

“Our vision for the Platform is to harness the full power of our data—the oxygen that fuels AI—making it accessible and actionable for every marketer. By integrating AI into every facet of the Platform, we aim to streamline repetitive tasks, scale high-performance content creation, and ultimately build a 24/7 marketing experience with AI agents that empower marketers to achieve more, wherever they are,” said Elspeth Rollert, CEO of The Marketing Cloud.
“Data is the backbone of the Platform—it’s not just vast, it’s uniquely actionable,” added Mansoor Basha, The Marketing Cloud’s CTO. “This foundation gives our AI models context and clarity. By infusing our tools with integrated attitudinal and behavioral insights proprietary to the Stagwell network, we enable marketers to make decisions grounded in how real people think, feel, and act.”
Early adopters of The Marketing Cloud Platform have found significant improvements in efficiency, cost savings, and marketing performance—demonstrating the platform’s potential to transform how teams work.
“By utilizing Propellers and SET through The Marketing Cloud Platform, we’ve reduced our expenses on external creative agencies by 70%, enabling us to eliminate agency fees and high production costs,” shared Julie Marchant-Houle, CEO of ESTYLE. “As a result, we have become more efficient, reallocating more funds into working dollars and providing us with a wealth of content that we wouldn’t have otherwise.”
