The company behind Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp and the Llama models — a major paid-social and AI player.
Official siteMeta Platforms owns Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, Messenger and Threads, and runs one of the largest advertising businesses in the world. Its platforms are where a large share of paid-social budget is spent and where a lot of brand discovery happens outside of search.
Meta is also a serious AI player. It develops the open-weight Llama family of models and builds Meta AI into its apps, which makes it relevant both to advertisers and to the wider AI landscape that shapes how content gets used.
Meta operates the largest social and messaging platforms and the Ads Manager auction that sells access to them. It also develops the Llama open-weight models, embeds Meta AI across its apps, and invests heavily in AI infrastructure.
Meta's platforms are a primary channel for paid social, retargeting and demand generation, especially for consumer brands. Its social pages also contribute to a brand's entity footprint, and Llama's presence in the open-model ecosystem influences the AI tools many businesses adopt.
We plan and run paid-social campaigns in Meta Ads Manager as part of a wider paid-media mix, keep brand profiles consistent so they reinforce entity signals search and AI systems rely on, and factor Llama into technology choices when an open-weight model suits a client's build.
