Vancouver, working globally
Six disciplines. One standard of care.
A deliberately narrow menu. Everything on it is something we have shipped, measured, and would be willing to sign our name to.
Affiliate Marketing
We own, operate, and grow content properties in competitive verticals. We know what converts because we ship it every week.
Topical authority, editorial operations, monetization architecture, vendor negotiation, reporting discipline.
AI Integration
We wire intelligence into the places it actually earns its keep. Workflow automation, internal tools, customer surfaces.
Anthropic, OpenAI, open weights. Evaluation harnesses, safety rails, production telemetry from day one.
LLM Integration & Fine-tuning
Custom models, RAG systems, and production agent infrastructure for teams that want leverage, not demos.
Retrieval architecture, tool use, agent orchestration, prompt caching, cost discipline, honest evaluations.
SEO & Content Strategy
Topic authority, technical foundations, editorial workflows. The boring work that compounds for years.
Keyword economics, content briefs, internal linking strategy, schema, Core Web Vitals, editorial calendars.
Digital Analytics
Clean data, honest dashboards, decisions that survive contact with reality. No vanity metrics.
Event taxonomies, server-side tracking, attribution modeling, experiment design, executive reporting.
We eat our own cooking.
We run our own digital properties alongside client work. It keeps us honest, keeps the playbooks current, and means every recommendation has been tested with our own money on the line.

Operators, not performers.
Kernel Media is a small studio based in Vancouver. We were founded on a simple conviction: most agency work is theatre, and a handful of operators doing careful, compounding work will always outpace a hundred chasing trends.
We keep the roster small on purpose. We only take projects where our work will visibly move the business. If that sounds like you, the door is open.

Accepting two engagements for Q3 2026
This is a live AI intake, running on Claude. It'll ask two or three short questions and compile a brief that lands in our inbox — usually sharper than a form.
