What each agency actually does
What is Obviously
Obviously is a tech-led enterprise influencer agency. Founded in New York in 2014 by Mae Karwowski and Maxime Domain, it runs a proprietary platform with a team of around 100 and it specialises in enterprise product seeding at scale and campaigns in regulated industries for brands like Google, Ford, Ulta Beauty and Amazon.
WPP acquired Obviously in 2023, so it now sits inside the VML network with holding-company resources behind it. The combination of proprietary tech and enterprise delivery is the draw for large brands that need scale, process and compliance, rather than a self-serve tool they run themselves.
What Obviously does well
- Tech-led with a proprietary platform
- Enterprise product seeding at scale
- Strong in regulated industries
Where it falls short
- Pricing undisclosed
- Now WPP-owned, inside VML
- Built for enterprise, not small teams
What FamePick was
FamePick is a name whose websites no longer work: famepick.io is deregistered and famepick.com is for sale. Both of its known domains have gone. Two checks settle it: neither known address reaches a product: one is deregistered, one is listed for sale.
A marketplace sat alongside a managed roster. Its LinkedIn page still links to the for-sale domain. It reportedly raised around 4.6 million dollars in a 2019 Series A.
Treat every number on this page as reported rather than confirmed. Nothing trading today answers to FamePick.
What FamePick was known for
- Over 100 directly managed talent
- Venture backing behind the platform
- Both self-serve and managed routes
- A hybrid of marketplace and managed service
Why it is not a live option
- The fallback domain is listed for sale
- Only a stale profile remains
- The LinkedIn page is stale
- The original domain is fully deregistered
Head to head
These two are not weighed against each other on the usual terms. The product is not reachable at either address. FamePick is a historical brand now. Two checks settle it: neither known address reaches a product: one is deregistered, one is listed for sale. Only Obviously can take a brief, so the question worth answering is what became of FamePick.
