WPP today announced it is expanding its long-standing partnership with Meta. WPP will become the first advertising partner to pilot Meta's new creative solution, built to navigate creative strategy and optimisation, currently in testing, for brands to analyse and suggest improvements for creative performance. It will be integrated directly into WPP Open, WPP’s pioneering agentic marketing platform.
The partnership addresses a critical need for advertisers. In Q1 for 2026, global ad impressions across Meta increased by 19%. With more than 3.5 billion people using at least one of Meta’s apps every day, the ability to optimise ad creatives for this ecosystem is paramount to driving client growth.
This planned integration enables WPP teams to turn campaign performance data into a clear creative playbook with AI, allowing marketers to move beyond guesswork, easily identify high-performing creative, generate new concepts and validate them with robust testing. Agency teams can seamlessly diagnose, generate and scale winning creative for the world’s biggest brands without adding new workflows.
The platform is built around capabilities including:
A dedicated space for creative strategy and optimisation: A collaborative space for both creative and media teams, this solution translates campaign insights into your next creative decisions in real time, closing the loop between what's performing and what comes next.
Brand memory: Learn about a brand's identity and tone from existing ads and utilise these insights for creative generation capabilities within the tool. Marketers can refine their brand memory to accurately scale creative production without sacrificing consistency.
Agency-ready from the start: Enables WPP agency teams to diagnose, generate and scale high-performing creative for clients without changing their process.
By embedding this advanced capability within WPP Open, WPP ensures its clients more robustly benefit from AI-driven creative intelligence at scale, strengthening its position as the trusted growth partner for the world's leading brands.
Unilever will serve as the inaugural client for the integration, emphasising its leadership in modern, creator‑led brand building powered by technology. The brand will receive early, beta access and the ability to shape the product at its earliest stages.
Selina Sykes, Global VP, Digital, Social and AI Transformation, Beauty & Wellbeing, Unilever, said: "We believe the future of advertising lies at the intersection of creativity and technology. Being an early partner with WPP for Meta’s latest tool gives us the opportunity to shape a solution that helps our brands move faster, create smarter and connect with consumers more effectively across the platforms where they spend their time."
