Cowboys, Lassos, and Nudity: AI Startups Turn to Stunts for Attention in a Crowded Market
Lunos spent $3,500 to stage a cowboy lasso stunt in front of Manhattan’s Wall Street bull, using the spectacle to promote its AI‑driven accounts‑receivable automation. The move reflects a broader trend where AI startups, amid a market of over 90,000 firms and $202 bn in 2025 funding, turn to provocative, low‑cost activations to cut through advertising noise. Similar tactics were employed by Virio at the HubSpot Inbound conference and Personal AI’s topless stage act, each aiming to generate viral LinkedIn content and qualified leads. Early results show Lunos attracted hundreds of prospects and a surge in job applications, while Virio’s and Personal AI’s outcomes were mixed but still yielded measurable interest.
