About Us
Amplified Intelligence is a South Australian start-up founded by Professor Karen Nelson-Field in 2017.
Initially formed as a consulting research company in media effectiveness, our strong technology focus and unwavering desire to collect and analyse data for our research saw us turn research methodology on its head.
This has seen the continual growth of our capability and service offering, as we’ve transitioned toward a truly world-leading software service provider with those same key internal beliefs;
- We believe that media trading should be fair and accountable.
- We all know that advertising measurement needs reform.
- Attention is a highly effective and accurate media metric.
- Amplified Intelligence is the source for rigorous attention measurement.
These 4 statements drive our business, and because of them we’re still uncovering research insights through bespoke data collections and market-leading media monitoring utilised the world over.
Our goal is twofold, to elevate and empower those within the media industry to make truly informed commercial decisions, and to maintain our commitment and investment toward innovation, bringing world-first human-centric attention metrics and products to the fore.
We deeply understand attention science and are trusted by the biggest brands, agencies, and media owners.
Our Founder, Dr Karen Nelson-Field, is also an internationally renowned and regarded thought leader in attention and media metrics, who speaks widely across the globe. As a true subject matter expert and with over 17 years spent redefining the marketing research landscape, she has produced a number of best-selling books spanning all areas of the marketing and the birth and evolution of the attention economy.
