HyperAd lands $1 million to turbocharge ad creative production with AI

HyperAd Raises $1 Million to Solve the Ad Creative Bottleneck

Tel Aviv-based HyperAd has secured $1 million in pre-seed funding to tackle one of the biggest challenges in advertising: producing effective ad creatives quickly and at scale. Supported by Horizon Capital and Fiverr’s Micha Kaufman, the startup has built an AI-driven platform that generates high-performing ad variations in minutes.

From Experience to Innovation

The founders—Jonathan Karmi, Shai Cohen, and Tal Yahav—bring a combined background in creative production, marketing, and AI analytics. Karmi and Cohen, former members of the IDF’s Egoz Unit, previously launched a creative agency serving over 200 clients including Fiverr, McDonald’s, and Wolt. Yahav, with a strong data and AI background, co-founded Pudding AI, focusing on ad analytics.

They noticed a recurring problem: brands need to create hundreds of ads weekly but face slow, fragmented, and costly creative cycles. HyperAd addresses this by shortening the test-learn-iterate process from weeks to minutes, allowing marketers to scale winning campaigns faster.

The Product: AI-Powered Creative Generation

HyperAd’s platform analyzes live and historical ad performance data, identifying which creative elements work best. With one click, it produces refreshed images and videos while respecting brand guidelines. Customers review final assets before going live, ensuring quality and control.

This approach eliminates the need for yet another dashboard, focusing instead on delivering actionable results. The platform continuously evaluates creative effectiveness and recommends prioritized improvements to maximize impact.

Market Potential and Current Status

Global digital ad spending is expected to hit $1.5 trillion by 2030, growing at a double-digit rate. In this environment, the speed and quality of creative iteration are critical for campaign success.

HyperAd’s platform is already operational, securely integrating with advertiser accounts and delivering production-grade creative variants. The team is focused on scaling sales globally and enhancing the platform’s AI capabilities with the new funding.
