OverviewWe power the builders behind every brand—an AI Revenue OS helping DTC teams grow smarter and faster. Marklo is the AI Revenue OS for modern commerce—helping lean DTC teams turn planning chaos into campaign clarity. Our first product is a GTM Calendar with Campaign Intelligence: a marketer’s control tower to plan, launch, and learn from every campaign, using AI to recommend what to run, when to run it, and how to launch it—learns from past campaigns and surfaces insights in one place. We’re backed by top VCs and angels, and our founder has built and scaled category-defining companies. Marklo is building the operating system for a faster, smarter, AI-native commerce era.Why This Role MattersAs our Founding Product Designer, you’ll define how intelligence becomes intuition—how logic becomes magic.
