Launched in 2013, Ometria pivoted to become a customer insight and marketing automation platform for retailers and commerce businesses. Its platform unifies disparate customer signals, identifies where each customer is in their lifecycle, profiles tastes and interests, and triggers personalized messages and campaigns. The company says its automated marketing platform drove a 323% increase in email revenues and a 92% increase in customer reactivation in cited case studies (Swoon Editions, Finisterre, MyTights). Ometria built the automation layer after finding customers lacked resources to act on analytics alone. The startup will use the disclosed funding to grow the team and further develop the automated marketing product. Financially, the company has secured a total of $5 million in seed investment to date.
