Yext

Yext (operating at yext.com) is an enterprise agentic marketing platform engineered for businesses seeking to dominate digital discovery. Founded in 2006 by Howard Lerman, Brian Distelburger, and Brent Metz and headquartered in New York, Yext revolutionizes how multi-location brands manage their online presence. Unlike traditional tools that fragment local listings across disparate platforms, Yext consolidates verified data, AI-driven intelligence, and distribution capabilities into a unified system. Under the hood, its platform leverages the world’s most comprehensive structured data infrastructure, ensuring accuracy and consistency across search engines, voice assistants, and social networks. This allows enterprises to control their digital footprint, enhance local SEO, and deliver seamless customer experiences—whether through search results, maps, or conversational AI. Backed by $65.8 million in funding as of early 2024, Yext has scaled to empower global brands with the tools needed to thrive in an AI-first discovery landscape.
