When something works, you do it again, right @OutsetAI? How about 4 times!
This past Sunday at Fort Mason, Outset ran their 4th hiring campaign with Free Bean
The data speaks for itself: 13.5% scan rate, dozens of calls to Outset’s team, and chatter on the streets
More soon!
Excited to launch @freebean_co x @encord_team!
At CVPR in Denver, Encord distributed branded coffee in @Robotcom
In Encord’s words, “They look brilliant, well done!” and “Turns out nobody can walk past a robot without stopping.”
@ifs let two autonomous delivery robots loose at the Microsoft AI Tour in Houston, distributing Free Bean coffee
The result? Free coffee, big smiles, and bigger conversations about what IndustrialAI looks like
We used to say "Cans in Hands" but now "Cans in Robots" works better
We're excited to share the launch of @jedifyai's first-ever Free Bean campaign!
Through our street team distribution channel, Jedify targeted attendees of @Snowflake Summit outside @MosconeCenter by putting their brand in people’s hands
For the first time ever, @ElevenLabs opened a physical store during NY @Techweek_ by a16z, and we’re excited to share that Free Bean is helping bring the experience to life!
Would highly recommend checking it out if you're in NYC this week!

Campaigns don’t start with a logo. They start with fit.
At Free Bean, we match brands to specific consumers based on intent, moment, and audience.
Want to be the brand in their hand when they take their first sip of the day?
Let’s chat.
Who else is sick of coffee prices continuing to increase?
Since 2020, Starbucks has had a 25% increase. McCafé had a 40% increase.
Stop breaking your wallet. Sip Free Bean.
Tell us where you want to see Free Bean next!
66% of American adults drink coffee every day.
It’s not a habit. It’s a ritual.
That’s why Free Bean works. We’re not interrupting behavior, we’re embedding into it.
Right moment, right medium, right in your hand.
“Free” gets a bad rap.
But free doesn’t mean no value. It means frictionless.
Free Bean isn’t just about coffee. It’s about earning attention.
Give people something they actually want, and put your brand on it.
Billboards get seen.
Free Bean cans get held. 23.7× more impressions per person.
Every sip, scan & stare is brand time.
It’s not just coffee, it’s physical media that sells.
“Stopping advertising to save money is like stopping your watch to save time.” - Henry Ford
Cutting advertising is silencing your brand.
Free Bean turns free coffee into trackable, unskippable ads.
They pay off more and put your brand directly in people’s hands.
4,400+ branded cans later: People forget what they see, not what they hold.
Average 18 brand views per can, 11.8% scan rate, 18.6% redemption.
“Free” isn’t a hook. It’s a strategy.
“Half the money I spend on advertising is wasted; the trouble is I don't know which half.” - John Wanamaker
Not with Free Bean.
Every can has a QR code & CTA, turning physical ads into trackable data pipelines with real impressions, clicks & conversions.
What if coffee was free?
What if every sip was an ad?
Free Bean is a new habit-based media channel, now expanding nationally—born from a 6-ft table.
