From fast-paced campaigns to cost-efficient global rollouts, Digital Twins are transforming the way marketers produce and scale content.

1. Faster, Scalable Content Creation

Digital twins—realistic 3D models based on CAD or product scans—make it possible to create countless photo-realistic visuals, variants, and animations without photoshoots. They ensure brand consistency across social, e-commerce, and print—all while keeping overall quality top-notch.

2. AI-Enhanced Visuals

By combining digital twins with generative AI, marketers can generate scene variations—like seasonal backgrounds or regional lighting—while maintaining full control over brand look and feel.

3. Motion-Ready Assets

Once created, digital twins can be animated into explainers or product demos using CGI, reducing the need for complex video shoots and post-production.

4. Proven Business Value

Brands like Unilever, Smart, H&M, and L’Oréal already use digital twins to:

• Cut production costs by up to 50%
• Double content output
• Localize faster across markets

And we have the experience and expertise to know for sure. Take a look at the Digital Twin ecosystem we built for smart.
