About Knowlify
Knowlify is a done-for-you video ads agency for B2B and B2C companies running paid social. We concept, script, produce and edit AI UGC ads, Pixar-style character animation ads and AI commercials, with a human quality check before delivery. Our team starts with a 20-minute kickoff call, sends creative direction for approval within 48 hours, and delivers the first batch five days after the first call. New batches arrive weekly, with about 25 finished ads a week on a monthly plan. We also offer end-to-end Meta advertising for Facebook and Instagram, combining creative production with campaign management. Creative-only engagements are available for teams with their own media buyer. Media spend is separate, and clients keep every finished ad. See examples and book a call at https://knowlify.com/.
