We are excited to announce that Cision® has purchased the ShareIQ Platform, the industry leader in identifying, monitoring, and retargeting based on brand images across all social, web, and digital channels.

Combining the expertise of our two companies will extend Cision’s existing Monitoring capabilities within the Comms Cloud. While already designated as the leading text-based media monitoring, ShareIQ further advances Cision’s coverage into the realm of visual media. Given consumers upload more than 3B images a day to the web, it is crucial to have the ability to monitor images even without accompanying hashtags, captions, or even meta data

PR and Comms Professionals will see value in two ways:

1. Understand the life of each visual asset and monitor coverage beyond text across the web.

2. Deeper insight into the individuals who have viewed these images – or any of your earned media content – and their impact on business metrics.

To see for yourself how ShareIQ and Cision Monitoring could add value to your PR, reach out to your Cision rep or request a demonstration online. To learn more about our acquisition of ShareIQ, visit cision.com

Best,

Kevin Akeroyd, Cision CEO
