NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb 19, 2026--

Built exclusively for MTP clients across the agency group’s 10 brands, the platform marks a significant evolution in how independent agencies can leverage technology to deliver measurable business outcomes.
Powered by RADaR Analytics, MTP’s data and analytics firm, MTP Intelligence is designed to orchestrate marketing workflows end-to-end while working seamlessly within clients’ existing technology stacks. The platform eliminates traditional silos between creative development, media planning and buying, commerce activation, and performance measurement, enabling real-time optimization and data-driven decision-making across the entire marketing lifecycle.
“The fragmentation of marketing technology has created a fundamental problem for brands: brilliant creative lives in one system, media planning in another, commerce data in a third, and performance analytics somewhere else entirely,” says Tim Ringel, Meet The People’s Co-Founder and Global CEO. “MTP Intelligence solves this by creating a unified environment where every discipline can work together in real-time, informed by the same data and optimizing toward the same business goals. This goes beyond mere efficiency — it’s about fundamentally better marketing.”
The platform addresses a critical challenge facing modern marketers: the need to move faster, demonstrate clearer ROI, and eliminate the friction that occurs when creative, media and commerce teams operate in disconnected systems. By integrating AI-powered workflows with human creativity and strategic thinking, MTP Intelligence enables teams across the agency group to collaborate more effectively while maintaining the specialized expertise that defines each MTP agency.
“The true value of data lies in its ability to deliver clarity, and that’s the foundation of everything we’ve built into MTP Intelligence,” says Candice Rotter, President of RADaR Analytics. “Clear data eliminates ambiguity and enables teams to extract valuable insights, identify trends, and make informed choices quickly. This platform brings that clarity to every stage of the marketing process — from initial strategy and creative development through media activation and performance optimization. When creative teams, media planners, and commerce specialists are all working from the same transparent, real-time data, the results are transformative.”
MTP Intelligence is platform-agnostic and designed to integrate with clients' existing enterprise software and marketing tools rather than requiring wholesale technology replacement. The system pulls data, workflows and intelligence into a shared environment while respecting the specialized tools and processes that different teams rely on. This approach allows MTP's agencies—including VSA Partners, Public Label, Match Retail, True Media, Coegi, Swell Media, Saltwater Collective and Yeoman Technologies—to collaborate seamlessly on integrated client solutions while maintaining their distinct identities and specialized capabilities.
Early client partners deploying MTP Intelligence include Central Bancompany, StorageMart/Manhattan Mini Storage, and other key clients, with a broader rollout planned throughout 2026.
“MTP's Intelligence Platform represents the kind of innovation we look for in strategic partners. The tools will help us better understand performance, uncover new opportunities, and make more informed decisions across our marketing efforts. Their commitment to innovation continues to deliver real value to our team and strengthens the impact of our partnership with RADaR.”
Josh Redel
Senior Vice President, Director of Corporate Marketing, Central Bancompany
“The MTP Intelligence Platform helps us transform noisy data into actionable insights that improve our marketing costs and business outcomes. Their ability to unify complex data allows us to spend less time chasing down data and more time making informed decisions that drive growth across our portfolio.”
Sarah Little
Senior Vice President, Marketing, StorageMart/Manhattan Mini Storage
The platform launch underscores MTP’s commitment to combining entrepreneurial independence with enterprise-grade technology capabilities. Unlike traditional holding company models where technology initiatives often struggle to gain adoption across siloed agency networks, MTP Intelligence was developed collaboratively across the agency group’s 800 employees, ensuring buy-in and practical application from day one.
“We initiated investing and building this proprietary technology because our clients needed it and our teams wanted it,” adds Ringel. “This is a time when marketing budgets face unprecedented scrutiny. Brands demand to see where their money is going. Not only that, they expect to understand why it’s working and how they can optimize in real-time. MTP Intelligence gives our teams the technology infrastructure to provide those insights, results, and accountability while freeing them to focus on what humans do best: strategic thinking, creative problem-solving, and building meaningful connections between brands and people.”
MTP Intelligence represents the agency group’s largest technology investment to date and positions the organization as a leader among independent agency groups in leveraging AI and integrated platforms to drive client success.
