# #brandwatch **Kitt** (2026-03-13 19:37) Brandwatch Partnership — Full Context & Brief The Pitch CE fills the gap in Brandwatch's platform between **data/intelligence** (left side) and **publishing/measurement** (right side). The missing middle: turning social listening data into strategy, creative, and multi-market campaign assets. No competitor offers this. **Audience:** Brandwatch leadership (NOT end-users). Every benefit must circle back to what BW gets: churn reduction, ARPU uplift, platform stickiness, renewals. **Key framing:** • CE is a **product/tool**, not an agency service. Assaf builds the engine, clients own the output. • **Internal teams > agencies** — most BW clients don't have agency budgets. CE makes their internal teams faster. • "Every hour in CE is an hour in Brandwatch" — generic AI tools pull clients away, CE keeps them inside. Lukas's Role Lukas Richthammer — former Brandwatch enterprise sales, DACH expertise. Insider credibility. His pending tasks: **Kitt** (2026-03-13 19:37) 1. Lock down his formal role with Assaf (advisor? joining? compensation?) 2. Brandwatch org intel — who makes partnership decisions now 3. Cision's strategic priorities — what's their AI story internally 4. Warm intro strategy — who specifically to reach out to 5. Exclusivity position — discuss with Assaf 6. Identify a pilot client from his contacts Live Assets ``` | Asset | URL / Location | | ----------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Landing page | https://curiousendeavor.com/brandwatch-v2/ | | Capability map | https://curiousendeavor.com/brandwatch-internal/ | | Dove POC showcase | https://curiousendeavor.com/brandwatch-poc/ | | Deck v3 | https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1IvDHJ53PEYvge41LdLc7Tyb5U4xOmID7GjHlIYHarJY/edit | ``` **Kitt** (2026-03-13 19:37) ``` | Bridge mockup | https://curiousendeavor.com/brandwatch-bridge/ | ``` **Kitt** (2026-03-13 19:38) Work Files (on disk) ``` | File | Purpose | | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | work/pitches/brandwatch/brandwatch-v3/pitch-readiness-audit.md | Full audit — neither intro call nor full pitch is ready yet. 17 prioritized action items. | | work/pitches/brandwatch/brandwatch-v3/capability-map.md | Phase-by-phase gap analysis: BW Data → CE Strategy/Production → BW Publish | | work/pitches/brandwatch/brandwatch-v3/landing-page-review.md | Grade: B-.

Awaiting greenlight to execute. --- *Migrated from #brandwatch-2 thread. All context preserved.* **Kitt** (2026-03-13 22:38) <@806204763682766890> — tagging you here as requested.
