We’re thrilled to announce our new funding led by Greycroft, with participation from Lerer Hippeau, Audible, and existing investor Newark Venture Partners. From podcasting’s continued explosion to the steady rise of voice activation, no other channel represents as vital an opportunity as audio.
Much of the funding will help us further expand the end-to-end capabilities of our platform, and the formal launch of Veritonic Competitive Intelligence (VCI) today is a centerpiece of that evolution. VCI provides brands with a clear, regularly-updated view of how their competitors are marketing in audio, which initiatives are most effective, and how well they stack up.
It’s the next step on our mission to empower brands with all of the data they need to answer every key question about audio marketing easily.
Ready for a walkthrough of VCI? Fill in the form to the right and let us know.
