Over the past two years the company has grown revenue by more than 100%, completed two acquisitions and profitably scaled to about 200 employees. Impel serves more than 4,000 customers and integrates with an ecosystem of over 100 technology and marketplace partners. Led by co-founder and CEO Devin Daly and based in Syracuse, NY, the company plans to use new funding to accelerate product expansion and pursue additional M&A activity. SpinCar offers a digital automotive merchandising platform that leverages advanced 360° display technology and proprietary behavioral data to improve online car shopping engagement. The platform delivers immersive, VR-enabled experiences including virtual interior and exterior tours and tagged, touchable hotspots to showcase vehicle features. It captures precise vehicle and feature interaction data in real time, enabling dealers and marketplaces to personalize consumer touchpoints based on individual shopper interests. Led by co-founder and CEO Devin Daly, the company targets dealers, OEMs and third-party automotive marketplaces. SpinCar plans to use recent financing for growth and continued investment in product innovation. The company secured a $22M financing to support these initiatives. SwipeToSpin develops and markets proprietary, patent-pending software for creating, enriching, and publishing photorealistic 360 content. Founded in 2011 and based in New York, the company serves publishing, retail, and automotive markets and cites customers including Popular Science, Nerf, Olympus, Schick, and auto dealers. Earlier this year it launched SpinCar, an automotive-focused version of its 360 software, and has reported "immense success" with dealers using the product to present interactive vehicle views. CEO Devin Daly said the new funding will support continued expansion in the automotive marketplace.
