Needle

What is Needle?

Needle is a marketing platform built for direct-to-consumer ecommerce brands doing $1M–$10M in annual revenue. It replaces the traditional ad agency model by pairing machine-driven brand analysis with human strategists and designers who vet every output. Brands connect their Shopify, Meta, Klaviyo, and other channels; Needle then generates weekly campaign ideas, produces on-brand creatives within 48 hours, launches campaigns directly, and delivers continuous performance reports — all without long-term retainers. Brands on the platform report 177% average revenue growth over 12 months while cutting fixed marketing costs by 62%.
