Klear is officially part of Meltwater!

It’s been 9 years since we started this adventure. Since then we’ve been building, innovating, selling, growing, celebrating small victories, and learning from (many) mistakes. Our journey was an uphill climb until we arrived at Klear: the enterprise influencer marketing platform that you know and love today. 

Four years ago Meltwater searched for the best partner in the space. Jorn and Niklas (CEO and COO) came all the way to our small office in Israel to meet us in person. The Meltwater story inspired us, how a bootstrapped company grew to 1.8K employees across 60 offices, 28K clients and $370m+ ARR. But, for us the best part was seeing how such a big organization can move fast, while maintaining a culture that employees love and feel inspired by.  

We continue our adventure with the exciting news that Klear has officially joined Meltwater.

“The rise of the influencer marketing space – today a 10 billion-dollar industry growing 50 percent per year – is one of the clearest examples of how social media is transforming traditional marketing. Back in 2017, Meltwater partnered with Klear after doing a global search for the best product in this space. Together we have successfully won clients such as Nestlé, Walmart, OGILVY, Audi, H&M, BMW and Bvlgari. We can now fully combine Klear’s industry leading product with Meltwater’s global customer reach and create a formidable player to shape the future of the social influencer marketing space.”

John Box, Meltwater CEO
