1996
Founded in 1996, Brado began as a creative ad agency. Quickly, Brado recognized something missing in the marketplace. Few, if any, businesses were using insight to create communications that could change consumer behavior. Brado became a strategic market research firm with a core belief — in a world of parity, insight wins. We set the standard for achieving insight, using it to inspire organizations to be bold in the marketplace.
2017
After 20 years of achieving insight for Fortune 100 companies, Brado acquired several top tier digital and healthcare firms in 2017, creating an innovative structure for engaging consumers in life’s critical moments. Our new business model combined consumer insight expertise with cutting-edge digital skills, fueling growth and success for our clients.
2022
In partnership with Bon Secours Mercy Health, we developed the Conversational Engagement Platform (CEP) — merging decades of healthcare journey insight with the power of generative AI to extend provider reach, build trust, and guide patients through complex decisions.
2025 +
Brado’s CEP innovation now stands as its own company — Brado AI — created to help health systems transform how they connect, guide, and care for patients. Brado remains committed to understanding what drives human decisions — and how to meet people in digital spaces with relevance, empathy, and measurable impact.
