## About

C42D is a New York City branding agency that builds bold, market-ready brands for startups and growth-stage companies. Founded in 2010 by Creative Director David Card, the agency has spent over a decade helping early-stage teams transform complex products into clear, compelling brand identities that attract customers, inspire investor confidence, and scale with the business.

The agency has delivered end-to-end branding for companies across healthcare, AI, fintech, consumer products, and enterprise SaaS — including work alongside brands like Google, Facebook, and Ogilvy. C42D clients have collectively raised hundreds of millions in venture funding, with portfolio standouts like Kindbody (over $290M raised) and Brightline (revolutionizing pediatric telehealth).

What makes C42D different from larger agencies is the model itself: a senior-only team of four specialists — creative, strategy, digital design and development, and project management — with no junior layers, no account managers, and no middlemen. Every client works directly with the people doing the work. The agency also integrates AI into every phase of its process, from brand research and competitive analysis to creative development, copywriting, and custom-built tools — bringing the rigor and output of a large agency at the speed and intimacy of a boutique studio.

C42D is headquartered at 315 W 36th Street, New York, NY 10018.
