Complex Work Made Clear

About Core Mantis

Complex WorkMade Clear.

Core Mantis is a communication company built for complex work. We bring together strategy, communications, media, visualization and digital because complex challenges rarely fit within one discipline.

We start by understanding the problem, then determine what will make the work clearer, stronger and more effective. Sometimes that takes one capability. Sometimes several. What matters is that the thinking and execution stay connected from strategy through delivery.

The solution follows the problem, not the other way around. We believe in clarity over noise, substance over hype, and ideas that work in the real world.

Different disciplines.

One connected way of thinking.

Built around the problem,not the brief.

We work closely with our clients to understand their business, their people and what they are trying to accomplish. Not simply to deliver what was asked for, but to determine what is actually needed.

Sometimes the challenge is external, helping audiences understand a company, idea or offering. Sometimes it is internal, helping people understand where an organization is going and why.

In either case, our role is the same: understand the complexity, find the clarity and communicate what matters.

Core Mantis is led by people with deep experience across strategy, creative, communications, media, digital and visualization.

David Tsai, Principal at Core Mantis

“The most rewarding part of my career hasn’t been launching brands or marketing campaigns. It’s been the relationships built along the way, and knowing our work helped someone move an idea, a project, or a community forward.”

Jeremy Noftle, Principal at Core Mantis

“I’m at my best when there’s a complex problem to untangle, a better way to find, or an idea worth pushing further. I’m fortunate to do this alongside great clients and teammates — relationships that make the work as rewarding as the outcome.”

“I love seeing a project go from ‘How are we going to make this happen?’ to something everyone can be proud of. Working in tandem with our clients, finding solutions along the way, and succeeding together — that’s what I enjoy most about my job.”
