The acquisition of RTO+P also reinforces Mod Op’s commitment to blending human creativity and technology at a time when many agencies are looking to AI alone to drive results.

With RTO+P’s inventive mindset and deep well of creative talent, Mod Op will achieve a new level of data-driven creativity, ultimately delivering more resonant brand ideas that drive results for clients and give them an unfair advantage in the marketplace.
