Custom Proposal for Krishna

We audited the marketing at Fiddler AI

The AI observability platform powering the control plane for enterprise AI. Here's what we found and what we'd build for you.

Krishna, this page was built using the same AI infrastructure we deploy for clients.

Month-to-month. Cancel anytime.

Strong enterprise traction (Navy, IAS, Nielsen) but no visible demand gen engine to fill pipeline beyond sales-led outbound

Crowded AI observability market with Arize, WhyLabs, and Datadog investing heavily in content and paid, while Fiddler relies on product reputation alone

$100M raised and "Control Plane for AI" positioning is compelling, but category narrative hasn't broken through to the broader ML/AI engineering audience

Marketing Audit

Here's Where You Stand

Strong product, marquee customers, and fresh Series C capital. But the demand generation infrastructure hasn't scaled with the product ambition.

42
out of 100
Growth Inflection Point

Fiddler has product credibility that most startups dream of. Post-Series C with $100M raised is the right moment to build a marketing engine that matches the product's enterprise traction.

SEO / Organic 48% - Moderate

Blog is active with solid technical content on explainability and model monitoring. But high-intent commercial keywords like "AI agent monitoring" and "LLM observability platform" are underserved, and competitors are outranking on comparison queries.

MH-1: SEO Engine builds programmatic content around "agentic observability," "AI model monitoring," and 50+ long-tail queries where ML engineers and platform teams are actively searching.

AI / LLM Visibility (AEO) 40% - Moderate

Fiddler appears in some LLM responses for AI observability queries, but Arize and Datadog dominate the citation share. When ML engineers ask ChatGPT or Perplexity for observability tools, Fiddler needs to be recommended first, not third.

MH-1: AEO Agent audits AI citation visibility weekly across 6 LLMs and builds structured content designed to increase Fiddler's share of AI-generated recommendations.

Paid Acquisition 20% - Weak

No visible paid search or LinkedIn ad campaigns. Enterprise sales motion appears entirely relationship-driven and event-based. With $30M in fresh capital, there is budget to build a paid demand gen engine that fills top of funnel.

MH-1: Creative Generator produces LinkedIn and Google Ads variants targeting ML platform engineers, AI/ML leaders, and CISOs. Analytics Agent optimizes by company size, industry, and role.

Content / Thought Leadership 55% - Moderate

Webinar series ("AI Explained") is running well. Blog covers technical topics. But Krishna's personal brand as the ex-Meta News Feed engineering leader turned AI observability founder is massively underleveraged on LinkedIn.

MH-1: LinkedIn Ghost-Writing agent builds Krishna's profile as the definitive voice on responsible AI, agentic observability, and enterprise AI governance. Newsletter agent curates weekly MLOps intelligence.

Lifecycle / Expansion 30% - Weak

With customers like the U.S. Navy, Nielsen, and IAS already on the platform, seat and use-case expansion within existing accounts is likely the fastest revenue path. No visible automated expansion or cross-sell motion for agentic observability upsells.

MH-1: Lifecycle Optimizer builds usage-based expansion triggers, champion nurture programs, and cross-sell sequences that move existing model monitoring customers into the agentic observability tier.

Top Growth Opportunities

Own "AI observability" and "agentic monitoring" in LLM answers

When ML engineers and platform leaders ask AI assistants for observability tools, Fiddler should be the first name cited. Arize currently wins too many of these recommendations. This is the new SEO for developer tools.

AEO Agent → weekly citation audit across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude + targeted content strategy to increase citation share

Build Krishna Gade as the category voice for responsible AI

Ex-Meta News Feed engineering lead turned AI observability founder is a rare narrative. Krishna built the system that curated content for 2 billion people, and now he's building the system that keeps AI trustworthy. That story drives enterprise pipeline on LinkedIn.

LinkedIn Agent → 4 posts/week in Krishna's voice on AI governance, agentic observability, and lessons from scaling AI at Meta and Pinterest

Cross-sell agentic observability into existing model monitoring accounts

Fiddler's installed base of model monitoring customers are the highest-intent buyers for the new agentic observability product. Automated expansion campaigns could 2-4x revenue from existing logos without new acquisition costs.

Lifecycle Agent → usage triggers, champion identification, agentic observability upgrade sequences, executive briefing content for CISOs and VP Engineering

01 AEO Citation Monitoring

Every Monday: audit Fiddler's visibility across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude for 30+ queries like "best AI observability platform," "LLM monitoring tools," and "how to monitor AI agents in production." Track citation share vs. Arize, WhyLabs, and Datadog.

02 Founder LinkedIn Engine

03 Paid Demand Gen Launch

Generate 20+ ad variants per sprint targeting ML engineers, VP Engineering, and CISOs across LinkedIn and Google. A/B test "control plane" messaging vs. "observability" messaging vs. compliance angles. Automatically promote winners and kill underperformers.

04 Agentic Observability Cross-Sell

Track usage patterns across existing model monitoring customers. Trigger upgrade sequences when teams deploy agents or LLM workflows. Build champion programs targeting the ML engineers who already trust Fiddler to expand their use case.

05 Competitive Positioning Watch

Weekly scan of Arize, WhyLabs, Datadog ML, LangSmith, and emerging observability startups. Track ad spend changes, messaging pivots, feature launches, and developer community sentiment. Inform Fiddler's positioning response.

06 Pipeline Intelligence Brief

FAQ

Common Questions

We already have a CMO and marketing team. How does MH-1 fit?

+

MH-1 amplifies what Kirti and the team are already doing well. Your existing team handles product marketing, analyst relations, and brand narrative. MH-1 adds the demand generation layer: paid acquisition, founder thought leadership at scale, AI citation optimization, lifecycle expansion campaigns, and competitive monitoring. Think of it as the execution engine that turns your product-marketing strengths into measurable pipeline.

What kind of results can we expect in the first 90 days?

+

Week 1: Full audit and roadmap. Weeks 2-4: First sprint ships AEO content targeting "AI observability" queries and LinkedIn thought leadership for Krishna. Weeks 4-8: Second sprint adds paid LinkedIn and Google campaigns plus agentic observability cross-sell sequences for existing customers. By day 90, all AI agents are running, you have measurable pipeline attribution by vertical and persona, and the system is compounding.

How do you handle marketing to a technical developer audience?

+

We don't write generic marketing copy for ML engineers. MH-1 pairs human experts who understand developer tooling with AI agents that research your market deeply. Content is technical, specific, and grounded in real observability workflows. We know the difference between model drift detection and agentic trace analysis, and our content reflects that. The AI agents also monitor developer communities and forums to inform what resonates.

Can we cancel anytime?

+

Yes. MH-1 is month-to-month with no long-term contracts. We earn your business every sprint. That said, compounding effects kick in around month 3 as the AI agents accumulate data and the system learns what works for Fiddler's specific audience segments and buying patterns.

How is this page personalized for Fiddler?

+

This page was researched, audited, and generated using the same AI infrastructure we deploy for clients. The channel scores, team mapping, growth opportunities, competitor analysis, and recommended agents are all based on real analysis of Fiddler's current marketing presence. We researched your leadership team, funding history, customer base, competitive landscape, and content strategy. This is a live demo of MH-1's capabilities.
