Maars Communicates Keeps The Animeta PR Mandate

Maars Communicates has retained the communications mandate for Animeta. The agency has handled the account before and continues the relationship.

  • Client: Animeta, an AI-powered creator technology company
  • Founder: Anish Mehta, previously chief executive of the animation studio Cosmos-Maya
  • What Animeta does: technology, data, content strategy, brand partnerships and monetisation for creators
  • Agency: Maars Communicates
  • Scope: visibility across business, technology, media, advertising, the creator economy and entertainment
  • Angle the work will push: the changing economics of content creation and technology's role in supporting creators

Why Maars Communicates Keeping It Matters

Because it is the harder outcome. A win is decided on a pitch; a retention is decided on a year of work, usually against an incumbent's own results and often without a competitive process the agency can win on theatre.

In public relations specifically, it also means the client has seen what coverage the agency can and cannot deliver, which removes the optimism a new relationship runs on.

What The Brief Actually Requires

Explaining a business model rather than announcing products. A company sitting between creators, brands and technology is hard to describe in a single sentence, and the coverage it needs is the kind that defines a category rather than reports an event.

The founder's history gives the agency something to work with. A former animation studio chief executive moving into creator technology is a story about where that industry's economics went, which is a more durable angle than any product announcement would be.

What Was Said

Anish Mehta said the creator economy is evolving rapidly and that Maars understands the nuances of the media and content ecosystem. Mausam Shah, founder and director of PR at Maars Communicates, said the creator economy is moving from being largely reach-driven to a serious business ecosystem. Aayush Shah, co-founder and director of digital and business development, said the focus will be an integrated approach connecting the client's work to larger conversations.
