Wootag closes the loop with its end-to-end innovative solution by allowing customers to shop directly from the visual content, enabling a friction free shopping experience. In addition, it enables personalized ads, pushing personalized promotions and offers based on both individual consumer and external parameters, and even helping Brands design new product advertisements based on consumer data.

The platform also provides (first of its kind) programmatic recommendations basis external / macro data to aid advertisers to enhance relevance, prominence and contextual placement of content and campaigns.

Why we invested in the company:

§ Built for Scale –The product is completely self-serve, allowing brands to enhance their content for various user intents and end goals. Deeper insights enable brands to view and re-structure campaigns based on real-time customer engagement

§ Built for Personalization – We have come a long way from mass advertising to personalized adv in the hands (handheld devices) of the consumer. Wootag enables just that with it’s geography, marketplace, and publisher agnostic platform allowing brands to enhance and personalize their content in minutes

§ Large & High Growth Market – The Pandemic has induced a revision in every brand’s budgets towards digital advertising and need for personalization

§ Clear Category Leader – Productized and serving multiple stakeholder, Wootag with it’s data rich sets has the potential to evolve into fueling intelligent personalized programmatic purchase bidding for ads
