What 14Four does

14Four is a privately held, full-service digital creative agency founded in 2004 and headquartered in Spokane, Washington (1722 E Sprague Ave, Suite 130). The company designs and produces immersive digital experiences for major global consumer brands, spanning augmented reality activations, mobile and desktop games, websites, digital banners, 2D and 3D animation, social media content, and event installations. Its customer base is concentrated among Fortune 500 enterprises such as Toyota (13+ year relationship spanning the Tokyo and Paris Olympics Start Your Impossible platforms, Toyota Dog Toy, Land Cruiser, Detours, and Test Track), Nike, Starbucks, Sony, Kia, American Express, AT&T, CarMax, Chick-fil-A, Fender, Lucky Charms, and Cap'n Crunch, frequently delivered through agency intermediaries including AKQA, Saatchi & Saatchi, David & Goliath, H/L, THE·TEAM, Siegel+Gale, and THIS Design.

The agency's underlying technology stack combines cross-disciplinary creative and engineering talent with proprietary tooling and emerging AI-augmented production techniques. The flagship proprietary platform is Rangale, an AI-powered campaign management and sweepstakes tool that reduces backend build time by 30–40% and saves clients 15–20% versus traditional builds; Rangale is being positioned as a standalone self-serve offering beyond internal use. Production capabilities include a hybrid 3D-plus-AI texturing workflow, Gaussian Splatting for real-time photorealistic 3D reconstruction from photos and video, computer vision for AR experiences and facial-scanning avatars, and a generative AI video pipeline that converts live event data into automated video content for event display grids.

14Four generates revenue primarily through project-based professional services engagements with enterprise brand marketing teams and their agency partners, supplemented by an emerging SaaS subscription stream via Rangale. Go-to-market is relationship-driven and inbound, with a "Let's build it" call-to-action directing prospects to [email protected]. Marketing is portfolio-led via the company website, Instagram, LinkedIn, and a quarterly newsletter, with earned media generated through high-visibility campaign placements (Super Bowl, Olympics, F1 Grand Prix) and coverage in industry outlets such as AdWeek, MotorTrend, and Media Post. The company is founder-owned and operated, with no disclosed institutional investment, parent entity, or acquisition activity.

Revenue model

1. Creative & Digital Agency Services: 14Four generates revenue through project-based client engagements. As a digital creative agency, they are contracted by brands (directly or through agency intermediaries) to design, develop, and produce digital experiences including games, AR activations, websites, 3D animations, and event installations. Revenue is derived from professional services rendered across individual campaign and project engagements.
2. Rangale SaaS Platform: 14Four offers access to Rangale, their proprietary AI-powered campaign management tool, as a standalone self-guided platform for future users. This represents a potential recurring/ SaaS revenue stream beyond one-time project engagements.
