AI Innovations Score Big

By FP1 Strategies

FP1 closed out awards season with a bang, bringing home 23 Telly Awards. Earlier this spring, our firm won 14 Reed Awards and 14 Pollie Awards. Our 51 creative awards in 2026 – the most of any Republican advertising firm – eclipse our previous annual record of 46 that was set in 2025.

Over the past year, our creative team went all in on deploying AI to develop award-winning and race-defining advertising. Our generative AI ads accounted for 21 of our Telly winners. In March, we took home another 8 creative awards for our AI advertising, including the Reed Award for Best Use of AI Technology by a Creative Agency and the Gold Pollie for Best AI Digital Ad.

In total, our AI ads won 29 creative awards this spring.
