ONAR Nears Retina Relaunch, Welcomes Former Retina CTO Brad Ito as Interim CTO

Miami, FL, Oct. 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — ONAR Holding Corporation (OTCQB: ONAR), a leading network of marketing and technology companies, announced today that Retina, its recently acquired AI-powered marketing intelligence platform, is on track to launch a commercially ready new product within 30 days. As part of this milestone, ONAR has appointed Brad Ito, former Chief Technology Officer of Retina, as Interim CTO of ONAR to oversee the platform’s reintroduction and broader integration across ONAR’s portfolio.

Since the acquisition, ONAR has been rebuilding and enhancing Retina’s infrastructure to align with its expanding network of agencies and clients. The company will soon begin closed testing with key clients, validating Retina’s revenue-enhancing capabilities in predictive analytics, novel audience enrichment, and AI-driven performance optimization.

ONAR expects to begin onboarding new clients to Retina in the near term, adding an entirely new recurring technology-based revenue stream to the business.

“Retina was ahead of its time when we acquired it, and we’ve now positioned it to be an easy-to-opt-in tool that pays for itself with its performance increase,” said Claude Zdanow, CEO of ONAR Holding Corporation. “Having Brad Ito, the original braintrust for the product, back to lead this next phase ensures continuity and deep product expertise as we prepare to bring Retina back to market stronger than ever.”

ONAR President Chris Becker noted that the new version of Retina will launch in an upgraded form, streamlined around the features that have historically driven the greatest client impact.

“We’re relaunching Retina with a precise focus on features that directly and measurably improve client marketing performance,” said Chris Becker, President of ONAR Holding Corporation. “Retina will serve as a proprietary technology that strengthens ONAR’s competitive differentiation across our portfolio.”

Retina’s technology will serve as the foundation for ONAR Labs, the company’s innovation division focused on proprietary AI tools and data-driven solutions designed to supercharge marketing outcomes. This initiative marks another step in ONAR’s strategy to expand beyond agency services and deepen its technology footprint within the marketing ecosystem.
