Its products include the Sese competitive intelligence app, and social media search engine Inspire. Based in NYC, its has additional offices in Chennai, India and the US.
Jay Rampuria, Global Head of Client Development for Unmetric, says the partnership is 'a meeting of the minds' and comments: 'Today, almost all marketing content makes its way through social channels, and therefore, measuring engagement is more important than ever before to understand consumer sentiment about a brand'. George Carens, President of Kantar Media Intelligence, says the new service will give clients 'the opportunity to understand and make informed decisions on the total message being delivered by a brand across its paid, owned and earned media presence'.
