Claravine Announces $4 Million Seed Round, Signs on Adobe Veteran as CEO

Enterprise marketing teams can now track the success or failure of every digital campaign using clean, trusted and unified data

 
PROVO, Utah, May 16, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Claravine, an enterprise data governance platform designed to structure and unify digital campaign data, today announced $4 million dollars in funding, led by Silverton Partners with a strategic investment from  Kickstart Seed Fund. The company also announced the appointment of seasoned industry veteran Verl Allen as CEO. Allen previously worked in corporate development and strategy roles at Adobe and Omniture, overseeing over $2 billion in acquisitions during his time there.
“Having evaluated hundreds of technology vendors in the enterprise marketing space, I’ve seen first hand just how difficult it is to get consistent and reliable data when making important decisions about campaign spend and attribution,” said Allen. “When I saw the Claravine solution, I recognized how critical its service would be to enterprises everywhere. I’m looking forward to accelerating the company’s strong growth and helping marketers and data analysts gain deeper insights into campaign performance across the enterprise.”
Claravine was co-founded by Craig Scribner and John Boyd in 2012 when they realized that enterprise marketing and analytics teams were struggling to make sense of campaign data being generated across an increasingly fragmented ecosystem of marketing agencies and software solutions. This fragmentation has led to dirty and siloed campaign data being delivered to analytics and business intelligence solutions, which results in inaccurate campaign attribution results and therefore incorrect marketing spend decisions.
“Faulty data inevitably leads to flawed analysis, and nowhere is the problem more pronounced than within digital marketing campaigns,” said Craig Scribner, co-founder of Claravine. “We started Claravine to restore faith in digital analytics and enable our clients to transition their marketing  safely and securely  to a data-driven paradigm.”
Claravine standardizes and structures campaign data coming from all marketing channels so that teams across the enterprise can make faster and more accurate decisions. The result is higher returns on investment in analytics, business intelligence and marketing spend by enabling the enterprise to operate using clean source data.
With more than 30 enterprise clients, Claravine has already seen a strong market fit and significant traction. This funding will allow the company to continue expanding its sales, marketing and product teams so it is well-positioned to capture growing market demand.
