Built per brief.
Not per playbook.
A freelance studio. Seven pillars. The team that pitches the work runs it.
Senior thinking gets sold. Junior execution gets delivered. The strategist on the pitch is not the operator on the work.
Specialists are hired anyway. Then called in-house.
Un-herd is shaped differently. Small at the core. Wide at the edges. The core owns the brief. The edges flex around it.
Founders run every brief. Reporting belongs to you. The pod is sized to the work, not the staff. Senior is the only seniority.
Specialists. Channels. Tools. Timeline. The brief decides the shape of the team. Not the org chart.
Not a building. A brief. Answered by the people best suited to answer it.
~ the un-herd model
Five briefs. Five verticals. The throughline is accountability, not category. Founders ran every one. The pod assembled per brief.

A Dealer Management System built from scratch. Dual-app architecture linking chassis, motor, invoice, and dealer identity to one source of truth. Factory-to-buyer traceability. Supply-chain integrity end to end.
Each pillar is run by an operator who has lived inside it. The brief decides which pillars convene. The pod is sized to the work, not the bench.
"Growth isn't one department. We run it as one system."
The full digital engine. Paid, brand, SEO, content, creators, marketplaces, CRM, retention, analytics. One pod runs the whole stack. No vendor handoffs. No reporting gaps.
Paid / SEO / Content / UGC / CRM / Retention / Marketplaces / Analytics
Founder-led. Run end to end by Astha, Shubham, and Tanisha.
Visit HootHoot"The internet is loud. Sometimes a billboard isn't."
OOH, print, TV, radio, on-ground activations, retail visibility, mall and metro branding, RWA, exhibitions. Briefed, owned, delivered end to end. The channels most agencies outsource quietly. We don't.
OOH · Hoardings / Print / TV · Radio / DMRC / Bus · Auto / Mall · Retail / RWA / OTT
Run by Vivek. Fifteen years in outdoor and on-ground. Campaigns shipped for Suzuki, Adani, Skipper, Ola, Rapido, inDriver, and across DMRC, railway stations, malls, and RWAs.
"Marketing drives traffic. We also build the place it arrives at. And the systems behind it."
Marketing sites, e-commerce, dashboards, mobile apps. Inbound and outbound systems built on top. And the layer most studios won't touch: automations across operations, logistics, and supply-chain pipelines. Where context demands it, we embed on-site until the system makes sense.

Founder-led. Shubham on architecture and systems. Astha on product and dealer-facing flow. The KLB Komaki DMS, shipped from scratch, is the case study.
"Cast for relevance. Not for reach."
Creator partnerships built around fit, not follower count. Performance-tiered amplification. Structured briefs. Always-on UGC loops. 200 views to 20,000+ on this framework. Now standard across every engagement.
Creators / UGC / Always-on / Performance Tiers / Distribution
Run by Akshat Jain. A creator himself, Bain alum. Sits on both sides of the brief and builds the playbook from inside the creator economy.
"A personal brand is a business. We run it like one."
Representation for creators and personal brands. Roadmap, positioning, deal flow, sponsorships, IP, longevity. Built for talent who treat their audience as an asset. Not a vanity metric.
Creator Mgmt / Personal Brand / Deals / Sponsorships / IP / Roadmap
Run by Astha Singh. Operator of record on every personal-brand engagement under the studio.
"Every agency claims an AI offering. We build the experiences."
AR, VR, CGI, immersive content. Briefs that escape the flat screen. For launches, retail, events, and content.

Run by Vivek's events bench. Recent work for Exotel, Eicher, Microtek, Sharp, Wipro, Kansai Nerolac, Pilot, Redcliffe Labs, and Apollo 24/7.
The founders pitch and run the work. The pillar leads own delivery within their craft. The bench is convened per brief. No permanent payroll. No padding.
Astha Singh, Shubham Khanna, Tanisha Verma. The accountable layer. Same hands on the pitch. Same hands on the work.
Vivek on OOH, on-ground, and events. Aditya Aggarwal on AR, VR, and CGI. Akshat Jain on influencer marketing. Operators who run their own discipline.
Developers, AR engineers, performance buyers, copywriters, editors, OOH placement teams, on-ground crews, event producers. Verified. Gig-based. Convened by need.
The shape stays constant. The team that arrives at the end of it doesn't.
Brief arrives. Founders meet.
Pre-mortem on the real problem.
Three routes scoped. Strongest pitched.
POCs scoped. Specialists mapped. Budget aligned.
Client meets the pod. Work ships.
Sprint output review. Daily on time-critical work.
What worked. What didn't. What's getting fixed.
Roadmap re-pitch. Scope review. Direction reset.
Five claims that explain how the studio works. Same outcomes as an agency. A fraction of the bloat.
i.~ senior
The strategist who pitched is the operator on the work. No bait. No switch.
ii.~ matched
Assembled around the problem. Not retrofitted to who's on bench.
iii.~ honest
Budgets map to outputs, specialists, and timeline. Bench time and offices are stripped.
iv.~ deep
OOH placement teams, AR engineers, performance buyers, creators, editors, event producers. Convened by need. Not recruited per brief.
v.~ accountable
Honest monthly reports. The wrong specialist is swapped before the wrong work ships.

We started Un-herd because the people who pitched the work were rarely the people who ran it. The strategist on the deck vanished by week two. The juniors took over. The fees stayed the same.
So we shaped a studio where the pitch and the work are the same hands. Where pillar leads are operators, not titles. Where the bench convenes for the brief and disbands when it ships.
Across the founders and the pillar leads, we've built institutional pipelines, cut CAC by 75%, scaled traffic 100×, run 4 marketplaces in parallel, shipped AR for Oreo and Netflix, branded DMRC and railway stations, and produced events for Exotel, Eicher, and Microtek. Different briefs. Same studio.
If you're shipping something specific, and the brief doesn't fit one of the boxes most agencies sell, let's talk.
3000+ assets shipped · 100+ institutional accounts · 100× traffic on select engagements · seven pillars, one pod per brief

"The brief didn't want a deck. It wanted a team that ships."
"If your homepage needs sixty words to explain what you do, you don't know what you do."
"Cut the adjectives. Keep the verbs."
We work better when the brief is. Tell us what you're shipping. We come back with a pod, a scope, and a number that moves.
