Oncrawl joins forces with BrightEdge
BrightEdge and Oncrawl together have developed the most comprehensive enterprise-oriented solution available to Marketers, allowing them to conduct machine learning-led projects and analyze information, as well as utilize business intelligence.
It also provides both sets of customers with additional flexibility. The solution also assists customers in meeting compliance requirements such as GDPR, CCPA, and soon CPRA.
In the future, both companies will continue to grow and function independently, and their clients will benefit from their innovations.
Francois Goube, CEO & Founder of OnCrawl tweeted about this acquisition on Twitter.
Here’s what he said
The number of websites today is over 2 billion, and 250k new ones are created each day all around the web. With many more sites, more data, and the advancement of Web 3.0, there are significant challenges and opportunities ahead for the internet.
A major digital marketing priority in the past was knowing how websites interact with users. Due to the fact that websites now interact autonomously with each other and with companies like Google, Amazon, and Meta, machine-to-machine communication is becoming a major driver of Web 3.0.
By joining forces, Oncrawl and BrightEdge have developed a comprehensive enterprise-oriented solution, allowing their customers to perform machine learning-driven project-based research and analysis, utilize business intelligence, and activate resources. Also, it helps clients manage compliance requirements.
When we created Oncrawl, our mission was to democratize Natural Language Processing (NLP) and advanced engineering to build the next generation of data and technical SEO solutions.
This acquisition gives marketers ultimate elasticity to get the most out of their data and support the entire digital marketing ecosystem. I am excited to combine forces with BrightEdge to be the first in the market to deliver this to customers.
