Zak Averre
Content for the AI era: making machine-written text sound human, and human content worth reading.

About Zak
Zak is a content specialist with roughly a decade in marketing, having learned his trade at Saatchi & Saatchi in Cape Town before moving to the UK and joining Anicca in 2021 via Fifteen Design. He studied English Literature and Anthropology, a combination he credits for his understanding of audiences and how brand messaging lands.
Zak’s recent specialism is content for the AI era: he hosts Anicca’s training webinars on editing AI-generated text to sound human and on the value of human content in an AI world, and writes the agency’s coverage of zero-click SEO and AI’s effect on brand voice. When not working he enjoys reading, gaming, films, music festivals and posh coffee that he admits may one day bankrupt him.
Zak is always looking for ways to learn more about our relationship with communication, and for interesting ways to engage readers and bring brands and their customers closer together.
