Steven Bartlett Expands FlightStory With AI
Steven Bartlett's media company FlightStory is aggressively adopting AI after Bartlett raised an eight‑figure funding round and ran a two‑month internal agent contest last year that saved about $1.18 million. The roughly 100‑person company, which generated about $47 million revenue last year, is using AI for an animated children's series, multilingual translations (adding 20.5 million listens and $200k ad revenue), automated pitches, and social clips, but limits AI on LinkedIn to preserve authenticity.
Key Points
- 1Deploys AI across production, translation, ad pitching, and social clipping, saving $1.18M.
- 2Generates audience and revenue gains: Spanish translations added 20.5M listens, $200,000 ad revenue.
- 3Limits AI use on LinkedIn to retain emotional resonance; favors human-written social copy.
Scoring Rationale
Practical, measurable company outcomes and varied AI deployments drive relevance; limited industry novelty and single-source reporting constrain impact.
