Prophet

What Prophet does

Prophet is a global business transformation consultancy founded in 1992, headquartered in San Francisco, that serves Fortune 500 clients across growth strategy, brand transformation, marketing excellence, experience innovation, and organizational change. The firm employs 600+ professionals across 15 offices in North America (Atlanta, Austin, Chicago, New York, Richmond, San Francisco), Europe (Berlin, Hamburg, Munich, London), the Middle East (Dubai, Riyadh), and Asia-Pacific (Hong Kong, Shanghai), operating under an integrated model that combines strategy consulting with creative execution. Its proprietary technology stack is anchored by MAIA (Multi-Agent Intelligence Assistant), a multi-model AI platform integrating OpenAI, Google, and Anthropic foundation models, supported by a curated AI Accelerator Network of partners (Aaru, Jasper, Lyzr, Quilt.ai, Consumer.ai). The firm also publishes proprietary research including the annual AI-Powered Consumer Report and the Uncommon Growth Playbook.

Prophet generates revenue through project-based professional services engagements with enterprise clients, priced by scope, team composition, and engagement complexity, with multi-year contract cadences on larger programs. Distribution is exclusively direct enterprise sales via senior partner relationships, thought leadership-driven inbound, and referral networks, with no channel or reseller model. Its customer base spans financial services (UBS, MetLife, FM, Invesco, Swiss Re, Vialto Partners), technology (NVIDIA, Hootsuite, Trellix, Amazon Business, ASUS, Uber), healthcare (Mayo Clinic, CVS Health, AbbVie, Personify Health), hospitality (Hilton, Marriott), retail (UGG, The North Face, Ulta Beauty, Chick-fil-A, Keurig), and entertainment (Netflix, Penn Entertainment, Showmax, ESPN BET), with a secondary focus on private equity portfolio companies. Recent strategic activity has concentrated on AI capability buildout, including the June 2026 Lyzr partnership targeting more than $100 million in three-year combined revenue through a new Agentic Solutions service line.
