A note from the founders
What Vibiz does
Vibiz takes a business from “I need customers” to a running marketing operation. It learns the brand from the website, makes the ads, videos, posts and landing pages, launches the ads on Meta and Google, publishes the posts, captures the leads, and reports which ad or post brought each one in.
The problem we solve. A small business that wants customers online has two options today, and both are bad. Hire an agency, at a monthly retainer that only makes sense above a revenue the business does not have yet. Or assemble it themselves: one tool for creative, another for the landing page, the ad platform for campaigns, a spreadsheet for leads, and nothing that connects them. Most do the second, which is why they cannot answer the only question that matters: which ad brought this customer, and should I spend more on it?

Who uses Vibiz
Small businesses running their own growth without a marketing team: shops and ecommerce brands, local services, restaurants, clinics, coaches, software companies, and the small agencies that run several brands at once. The product assumes no marketing background and no ad-platform expertise.
What they made and launched, with dated numbers from their workspaces, is in the customer stories . How Vibiz fits each kind of business is on the solutions pages .

What we’ve built
Vibiz is a live product with paying customers. Each surface below is labelled with where it honestly stands.
- Live
Ad creatives and product visuals
Generates ad images, product photography, product-on-model shots, UGC-style lifestyle imagery and short-form video from a brand’s own assets. Includes remixing an existing reference ad into new variants.
- Live
Landing pages and lead-capture funnels
Builds and deploys landing pages and multi-step funnels on their own domains, with lead capture, a Stripe checkout and campaign attribution wired in.
- Live
Ad launch on Meta and Google
Launches and manages paid campaigns on Meta and Google: campaign, ad set and creatives, with the fee on the ad budget shown before you approve. Then tracks spend, clicks and per-ad results against the leads each ad produced.
- Live
Social publishing
Writes, designs and schedules organic posts to Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, LinkedIn and X from the same workspace that produced the creative.
- Live
CRM, inbox and outreach
Every lead the funnels, sites and campaigns capture, unified in one place, with the campaign, the ad and the session recording that produced it attached to the person.
- Live
In-product AI agent
An agent that operates inside the workspace rather than beside it: it can generate creatives, build pages, prepare campaigns and answer questions about the account’s own data. Also exposed over MCP, so it can be driven from Claude and other agent clients.
The MCP server - Live
Done-for-you ads
For owners with no marketing team: the Vibiz team makes the ads and landing pages, runs them on Meta and Google Ads, and reports every week. The owner approves what goes out.
The agency service - Live
Autopilot
A daily pass that proposes the next marketing action for a business and, with standing approval, executes it. In production, with access rolling out to all customers.
- Internal beta
Business simulation
Runs marketing decisions as tracked experiments with recorded outcomes, so a change can be judged against a baseline instead of a hunch. Internal only for now.
How it is different
It launches the ads, not only the creative.
Most AI ad tools stop at the image or the video. Vibiz takes the same creative into a Meta or Google campaign, with the fee on the ad budget shown before you approve.
The creative, the page, the campaign and the lead are one object.
Because they live in one workspace, attribution is a property of the system rather than a reporting project.
You approve everything.
Posts and ads wait as drafts until you say yes. You can change any of them by describing the change.
It is priced like software.
A monthly or yearly plan instead of an agency retainer. Prices are on the pricing page .
How it works
- 01
Paste your website
Vibiz reads the site and builds a brand kit (logo, colors, fonts and voice), plus your offers and the customers you sell to.
- 02
Get the work made
Ads, UGC-style videos, carousels, social posts and landing pages come out in that brand. Change anything by saying what to change.
- 03
Approve what goes out
Nothing is published without you. Posts go to the accounts you connect; ads launch on Meta and Google with the fee shown first.
- 04
See what worked
Spend, clicks, and the leads and purchases the Vibiz site tag records, with the next move suggested.
Under the hood
Vibiz is AI-native rather than AI-assisted. There is no template library: the creative, the landing page copy and layout, the campaign structure, the audience and the budget decisions are generated per business from its own brand, offers and performance data. Generation runs as durable background workflows, so one request can fan out into dozens of model calls and survive retries, provider failures and multi-minute renders.
The stack is multi-model and routed per task. Google’s Gemini models are the most used family across the product (brand and market analysis, ad and landing page copy, campaign reasoning and the in-product agent), with Google’s Nano Banana Pro image models behind ad creative and product photography and Veo behind generated video. Routing sits behind a gateway, so any step can move to the model that serves it best without touching product code.
