What a week! The team knocked it out of the park at Possible. But the real value comes from the conversations and meetings the team facilitated. Being around customers and industry peers who are wowed by what we are doing continues to excite me even more for what’s ahead.

I LOVE this headline.
AI is only as powerful as the data behind it. At scale, that’s what creates real differentiation.
At @ZetaGlobal , we’ve spent years building around that idea, and it’s now coming to life with Athena. $zeta

They expect to roll Athena out in beta next month. 4Q saw revenue growth of 25% and 24% growth in super-scaled customers.

We finally found what makes Punch happy. Here you go little guy 📈

[Candace Dean @CanDean12]

🔥 🔥 🔥

[Zeta @ZetaGlobal]

4Q was a record quarter to cap a record year 📈

✔️ Our 18th straight “beat and raise”
✔️ $395M revenue, an increase of 25% Y/Y (28% growth when excluding revenue from political candidates, LiveIntent and Marigold's Enterprise Business)
✔️ Highest-ever adj. EBITDA and FCF margins
✔️ Positive GAAP net income
✔️ Above the “rule of 50” again, and more

With our proprietary data that improves with every customer interaction, intelligence that sharpens with every decision, and Athena by Zeta™ expected to become the interface that lowers the barriers to enterprise-wide adoption, we are positioned to be the AI disruptor in enterprise marketing software.

Shoutout to our incredible Team Zeta for driving another quarter of growth!

The NYSE welcomes @ZetaGlobal to celebrate the full beta launch of Athena, the AI Superintelligent Agent, which builds momentum in 2026. $ZETA https://t.co/HWmvKhg4qf

[David A Steinberg @dsteinberg10000]

This is HUGE ! I am excited to share that today at #CES2026, @ZetaGlobal announced that we are teaming up with @OpenAI to power Athena by Zeta. 

This collaboration reflects where enterprise marketing is headed: AI that goes beyond insights to help teams move faster and act confidently. With Athena, we’re delivering answer-driven marketing at scale. Initial clients have been using Athena for months, including @TKOGrp (UFC WWE) they said this is changing the game for them in marketing.

Since we announced Athena at Zeta Live, we received strong demand from enterprises, which is why I am also excited to share that our first Athena agentic apps are now in beta.

We expect Athena to be fully live by the end of Q1 2026.

Proud of the entire Zeta team, a lot more to come with OpenAI stay tuned.

Anyone else last minute shopping? I’m not ashamed to admit AI is helping me a ton this season. According to a @ZetaGlobal survey, 83% of shoppers will let AI choose their gifts this year. Guilty 🙋🏻‍♀️ Check out more insights in this @cnbc article: https://t.co/lkA5ZKpRLZ
