Cisco is paying $270 million for Accompany, which uses AI to build profiles of business decision makers and map their connections. They’ll integrate the data with their collaboration products, most notably WebEx. The deal may be more about AI talent than data: Accompany founder Amy Chang, who sat on Cisco’s board until the purchase, will take charge of Cisco’s collaboration business. Total funding for Accompany was $40.6 million.
Sorry about that headline; I couldn’t resist. Namogoo prevents what it calls “online journey hijacking”, which is injection of unauthorized ads and content by third party services running on a brand Web site. They just raised a $15 million Series B, bringing their total raise to $28 million.
I’d like DX tool vendor Easysend better if “Accept” were not the only consent option on their website. But we’ll still note that they’re upping their AI game with AI-powered digital journeys, fillable form creation, and workflow management. They’ve also announced an integration that will permit the launching of digital journeys from within Salesforce.
