Photo credit: Ripp Photography Co. Corner Table Creative has been rolling out a new agency model inspired by its hospitality ethos, formally structuring teams into front of house and back of house roles, alongside the hiring of three new directors to support the shift. The model mirrors how high-performing hospitality groups operate: front of house teams, made up of client experience and brand strategists, focusing on client relationships, strategic oversight, and experience design, while back of house teams, creatives, designers, creators and producers concentrate on execution, content creation, and production across organic and paid social. The approach is designed to maintain the hybridity the agency is known for while clarifying responsibilities to scale output without compromising creative quality or client service, a growing challenge for social-first agencies as demand for always-on content accelerates. The new hires include: * Jessica Killian, creative director (back-of-house) * Marissa Osowsky, client experience director (front-of-house) * Alexa Baldacci, client experience director (front-of house) Killian most recently joined from ChukMedia where she worked on over 20+ different brands including Palmer's Skincare, growing their TikTok from 0-380K, Bausch + Lomb portfolio brands, developing Lumify's first Super Bowl spot, Wet Brush and Olipop. Prior to that Jessica Killian was a senior art director at Vayner Media on Olay and Chase Sapphire. Osowski joins from TBWA/Chiat/Day where she was a business director on Goldman Sachs, Carnival and Henkel, prior to that she was at Arts & Letters Creative Co. working on Google. Baldacci joins Corner Table Creative from Duolingo and NBC/Peacock where she led performance marketing strategy. The agency partnered with New Best Friend Co. for recruitment. "This structure allows us to grow intentionally while protecting what matters most: strong client partnerships and really memorable creative," said Rachel Brandt, co-founder and CEO of Corner Table Creative. "By clearly defining how teams show up, and valuing both sides of the house equally, we're building a more sustainable and effective agency model." Madeline Meade, co-founder and CCO added, "We are thrilled to bring Jess, Marissa and Alexa in to help lead our teams at this time of pivotal growth and set the tone for our new model as we enter the next chapter of Corner Table Creative." The restructure and hires are also a result of recent rapid growth for the award-winning agency. With new clients that include Match, Starbucks and OXO, the agency has grown to a 43-person team, 30 client partners, and will exceed $12M in revenue this year.

Specifically, Defendants misrepresented and/or failed to disclose that: (1) daily active user ("DAU") growth rates were being leveraged against deliberately added user friction in the form of significant increases in ad volume, subscription tier upsells, and worsened product quality, and Duolingo understood that any amount of user friction would cause users to leave the app and, ultimately, negatively impact DAU growth rates; (2) Duolingo's rigorous A/B testing demonstrated to the company that increased friction in the free user experience, including its monetization push and rapidly generated low-quality AI content, was having negative impacts on DAU growth rates; (3) Duolingo's quickly generated AI content was worsening the quality of Duolingo's product offerings, negatively impacting the user experience and user trends, and threatening the sustainability of the company's financial performance; and (4) as a result of the foregoing, Defendants' statements about the company's business, operations, and prospects were materially false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times. Why did Duolingo's Stock Drop? On November 5, 2025, Duolingo reported its third quarter financial results, revealing a decline in DAU growth to 36%, down from 49% in the first quarter.
