Push
Honest Agency Comparison

Push vs Jellyfish:
An honest comparison

If you are evaluating AI marketing agencies in the UK, you have probably come across both of us. This page compares them directly — including where Jellyfish is the stronger choice.

Why we wrote this

We built this page ourselves. That means it is not neutral.

But it is honest, which is more useful than a page that pretends to be objective while quietly favouring one side. We will tell you where Jellyfish is better. We will tell you where Push is the right call. The difference will be clear.

Most businesses choosing between us are not choosing between two equivalent options. They are choosing between two different operating models.

Who each agency is built for

Different agencies.
Different operating models.

What each agency actually does with AI

The question is not which agency has more AI. It is which application of AI matches your brief.

Push

AI embedded in the work

Rather than building a platform for clients to adopt, Push embeds AI directly into campaigns. DialAgents handles audience persona modelling and culturally relevant content generation. Dial 360 reviews campaign creatives in real time and surfaces optimisation recommendations. Both run inside live client work — not as standalone products.

AI is not a department. It is the default.

Jellyfish

AI built as platform infrastructure

Jellyfish spent 2024 and 2025 building proprietary tooling at scale. Their Media Ops Agent automates campaign setup and optimisation across Google, Meta, and Amazon. Share of Model measures brand visibility inside large language models. AI Studios produces content at scale using fine-tuned generative models. Built for global enterprise complexity.

A platform organisations can adopt and scale internally.

Delivery model and speed

Built for different kinds of briefs

Push: performance and speed

Campaigns go live fast. Iteration happens in weeks, not quarters. No six-month scoping process required to understand where your media budget is going. For brands that have decided AI in marketing is not a future project, Push is ready to start.

If you want AI embedded into your campaigns from day one — not built as infrastructure over 18 months — this is the model.

Jellyfish: global programmes at scale

Built for brands that need consistent, coordinated campaigns across 20 markets, internal training at scale, and long-term AI infrastructure across an enterprise organisation. The Media Ops Agent launches campaigns 65% faster at that scale.

If your brief is transformation across a major global brand, Jellyfish is built for exactly that.

Generative Engine Optimisation

A differentiator worth naming

One area where Push has built specific expertise that Jellyfish does not yet position around explicitly is Generative Engine Optimisation — the discipline of ensuring your brand appears in AI-generated answers from ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, and Gemini. Push is one of the first UK agencies to offer GEO as a named, structured service with documented methodology.

As AI search becomes a primary discovery channel, being cited in an AI answer matters as much as ranking on a results page.

The honest recommendation

Where each agency is the right call

Brief Push if...

  • You want AI embedded in campaigns from day one, not built as infrastructure over 18 months
  • You are a mid-market or growing brand without an enterprise procurement process
  • Speed to results matters — weeks, not quarters
  • You need AI across paid search, paid social, SEO, and GEO from a single partner
  • You want an agency that will tell you when something is not working

Brief Jellyfish if...

  • You are a global enterprise brand with a nine-figure media budget
  • You need coordinated campaign management across 20+ markets
  • Internal AI capability-building at scale is part of the brief
  • A long-term platform engagement with transformation scope is the right model
  • You have the procurement structure and budget for engagements from $500k annually

Most clients do not lose sleep choosing between us. They lose sleep staying with an agency that is still treating AI as an afterthought. Systems beat experiments.
