Meta

Hearings, headlines and a platform in transition. We helped Meta explain itself under the brightest lights there are.

The brief

The story

Meta faced Congressional scrutiny over platform safety, multi-billion-dollar AI investments that needed buy-in, and platform changes that unsettled advertisers, all at once.

The angle

Credibility comes from precision: acknowledge what’s true, explain what’s complex and never promise more than the product can do.

The reporting

We prepared CEO testimony, built rapid-response protocols, translated AI infrastructure for investors and wrote guidance for advertisers through privacy changes.

The impact

Consistent, defensible messaging across legal, policy and business teams through a period of intense regulatory and media pressure.

70,000+

Employees reached by internal communications during testimony

Under oath

We advised on CEO testimony before Senate committees, building message frameworks and rapid-response protocols for emotionally charged hearings.

  • Talking points on safety practices, resourcing and metrics that held up under aggressive questioning.
  • Responses to investigative reports that acknowledged real issues while explaining moderation at the scale of billions of daily interactions.
  • One consistent narrative across legal, policy and communications as lawsuits, oversight and investigations unfolded at the same time.
  • Guidance on working with investigative journalists, balancing transparency with legal exposure.
  • Internal communications for 70,000+ employees watching the testimony live.

03

Explaining the AI build-out

Data centers and compute capacity are hard to picture. We connected Meta’s AI infrastructure spending to things investors and partners could see: better recommendations, real-time processing and stronger products.

  • Investor frameworks linking global data center expansion to AI training and recommendation capabilities.
  • Board and investor briefings that tied capital spending to strategic position.
  • Competitive positioning that was confident without inviting regulatory scrutiny.
  • Sales enablement on what AI could and couldn’t do, so no one over-promised.

04

Advertisers through change

When iOS privacy changes and algorithm updates reshaped digital advertising, we turned technical shifts into plain guidance on attribution, targeting and budgets.

  • Campaigns explaining major platform updates to each advertiser segment.
  • Content that positioned Meta as a partner through privacy and regulatory change.
  • Messaging that acknowledged frustration while explaining changes that couldn’t be reversed.
  • Explanations of machine learning and privacy-preserving measurement for marketers without technical backgrounds.
