Tammy Nam takes the helm as CEO of AI-driven ad startup Creatopy

Tammy Nam joins AI-powered ad startup Creatopy as CEO, bringing experience from PicsArt and Viki. The company reports a 400% revenue growth.

Creatopy, an AI-powered startup that automates digital ad creation, has appointed Tammy Nam as its new Chief Executive Officer.

Nam brings a wealth of experience, having previously served as Chief Operating Officer and Chief Marketing Officer at photo-editing platform PicsArt. Before that, she was the CEO of video streaming service Viki. In an email to TechCrunch, she explained that Creatopy was looking for a US-based leader with experience scaling startups, working with European founders (the company was originally developed in Romania), and expertise in marketing technology.

โ€œFortunately, I fit that bill,โ€ she said.

Nam is also joining the companyโ€™s board as part of her new role. Meanwhile, former CEO Dan Oros has stepped into an advisory position, continuing to support Creatopyโ€™s growth.

Strong backing and rapid growth

Last year, the startup secured a US$10 million Series A funding round led by European venture capital firms 3VC and Point Nine. Eva Arh, a partner at 3VC, praised Namโ€™s leadership, calling her โ€œone of the best operators I know.โ€

Creatopy has seen impressive growth in the past year. Between February 2024 and February 2025, the company claims its mid-market and enterprise revenue increased by 400%, with most of that growth occurring in the last six months. Among its high-profile clients are AstraZeneca, NASCAR, and The Economist.

โ€œWhatโ€™s remarkable about Creatopyโ€”especially for a relatively unknown companyโ€”is our ability to land major enterprise customers in demanding industries like pharma and banking,โ€ Nam said.

She credited the companyโ€™s success to its โ€œintuitive interface, unique product capabilities, and excellent customer service.โ€ Nam also pointed out that while artificial intelligence is becoming increasingly common, Creatopy stands out by deeply understanding customer needs and delivering a high-touch experience alongside AI-driven automation.

AI-powered efficiency with brand safety in focus

Nam says brand safety is a top priority for Creatopy. She explains that marketing managers can upload brand kits when setting up their accounts, ensuring that every AI-generated ad stays within their brandโ€™s guidelines.

โ€œOur AI doesnโ€™t replace strategic thinking; it amplifies it,โ€ she said. โ€œSome of our customers have reported a 10x or more increase in productivity because we eliminate the tedious, manual work of generating hundreds of ad variations across sizes, formats, languages, and more.โ€

With Nam at the helm, Creatopy is set to expand its reach further, helping businesses create high-quality digital ads with greater efficiency and precision.
