Lo que hace Datarank

DataRank is a leading social analytics company. We monitor online conversation so that our customers can gather valuable comments and insights about their brand. We have demonstrated success with Fortune 100 companies who use DataRank for consumer insights. From increasing distribution and revenue to protecting their brand’s reputation, DataRank has assisted many companies with their marketing strategy. Our dedicated social analytics platform offers a variety of tools to help businesses perform competitive analysis before releasing a new product, monitor the social media conversation about their brand, track a social media campaign, and much more. DataRank is constantly looking for ways to be innovative in the industry. Most social media monitoring tools use Boolean-like languages but we have developed our own powerful matching language called Fizzle (Fast Scalable Searching Language), which more easily allows the user to search for phrases without gathering irrelevant data. We have a very active blog and social media presence where you can see our social media monitoring at work. Follow this page to see our updates! Company details

Making sense of social data.

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We built a social analytics platform that monitors online conversations to help marketing teams gather insights about their brands. Our product tracks social media campaigns, performs competitive analysis, and detects relevant conversations using a proprietary search language called Fizzle, which reduces irrelevant data compared to typical Boolean search tools.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live and work primarily between Seattle, WA and Fayetteville, AR. After YC, the company would be based where it makes the most sense for growth, likely maintaining one or both locations.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Our teams are split between Seattle and Fayetteville because that's where the founders are based. This distribution allows us to tap diverse talent and maintain balanced operations.
