In this exclusive interview, Eyal Sebbag, Head of Creative Marketing at Wix, shares the Super Bowl strategy behind the campaign, the launch of Wix Harmony, and how the company is blending AI with human creativity to shape the future of digital creation and modern demand generation.
What key factors such as Wix Harmony’s AI capabilities and broader tech trends prompted the decision to return to the Super Bowl after focusing on performance acquisition marketing in recent years?
Wix returned to the Super Bowl because the timing aligned with a major shift for the company and the industry. After several years where brand marketing and performance acquisition delivered the right results, Wix reached a moment where it had something transformative to introduce: Wix Harmony.
Wix Harmony presents a new benchmark within the AI-driven creation, combining vibe coding and agentic AI with full human control. This hybrid approach is a new chapter in how people build on the web, and Wix felt it required a global, cultural stage to clearly communicate that vision.

Drawing from past campaigns like #ItsThatEasy, what multichannel layers (e.g., social, search, email) are amplifying the Super Bowl spot, and how do you test and optimize them in real-time?
Social amplification is a key layer for the Super Bowl spot. Wix leverages its official social channels to extend the creative beyond TV, sharing clips, teasers, and behind-the-scenes content that highlight Wix Harmony’s AI-human hybrid approach. Posts from executives like Avishai Abrahami and Nir Zohar add authenticity and reach, giving followers a direct perspective on the product vision and brand story.
To test and optimize in real time, the team monitors engagement metrics such as likes, shares, comments, and video completion rates. Insights from these signals inform rapid adjustments to messaging, creative formats, and posting cadence, ensuring the content resonates with target audiences while maintaining clarity and cultural relevance.
Wix Harmony blends AI with human creativity for web building. How does the Super Bowl campaign demonstrate this to marketers, and what role does AI play in your internal marketing stack?
- The ad visualizes the AI‑human partnership: The Super Bowl spot shows a creator using Wix Harmony, where AI accelerates site building from prompts while humans retain full control, demonstrating AI as a supportive partner.
- AI as a partner in creation, not an override: The ad highlights how AI scales and speeds the creative workflow without replacing human decision-making, framing Harmony as an enabler of human creativity for marketers to showcase.
- Internally, AI informs storytelling and optimization: Within Wix’s marketing stack, AI helps pre-visualize concepts, align teams quickly, and explore creative directions, freeing humans to focus on storytelling, cultural nuance, and strategic messaging.
Beyond views and engagement, what specific MarTech metrics (e.g., attribution across channels, lead quality) will define success for this campaign, and how do they inform future brand efforts?
- Attribution across channels: Tracking how the Super Bowl spot drives activity across social, email, search, and content channels, showing which touchpoints contribute most to conversions.
- Lead quality and conversion: Measuring the number and quality of leads generated by the campaign, including small business sign-ups or trials of Wix Harmony.
- Message recall and brand perception: Evaluating whether the campaign clearly communicated Wix’s AI‑human hybrid approach and strengthened brand relevance.
How will Wix leverage real-time data from the Super Bowl activation, such as search spikes, social sentiment, and conversion funnels, to refine AI-driven personalization in ongoing demand gen efforts?
- Responding to real‑time search behavior: Search spikes around Wix Harmony reveal audience intent, helping AI tailor messaging, landing pages, and paid search bids for higher relevance and conversions.
- Tracking social sentiment: Monitoring social engagement shows which creative elements and messaging resonate, allowing AI to adjust content and targeting across channels.
- Optimizing conversion funnels: Analyzing user journeys identifies high-value segments and drop-offs, enabling AI to personalize follow-ups, emails, and retargeting for improved conversion efficiency.
