- **Headquarters**: New York, NY, United States
- **Founded**: 2022
- **Founders**: Jan-Henrik Lambrechts (CEO), Jérôme Billiet, Thomas Holvoet (CTO)

## Core Business
- **Primary industry**: Marketing technology / analytics / e-commerce infrastructure
- **Target customers**: B2C DTC brands, VPs of Marketing & Growth, e-commerce teams (200+ brands including Hims & Hers, Loop Earplugs, PopSockets)
- **Mission statement**: Help consumer brands understand their marketing performance and optimize spend allocation for more profitable growth.

## Products & Services
- **Converge Platform**: SaaS product that auto-tracks e-commerce events (Add to Cart, Purchase, etc.) across browser, store backend, and subscription platforms. Provides server-side attribution, consent management, identity resolution, data forwarding to ad platforms and analytics tools, and a unified dashboard of e-commerce KPIs. Non-technical setup in minutes.
- **Converge MCP**: Model Context Protocol integration that makes Converge data accessible inside AI tools like Claude and ChatGPT for natural-language querying.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not disclosed
- **Key Metric**: $6.1M total funding (as of Feb 2025); annual recurring revenue reported as "well beyond $2M ARR" (2026) – [runconverge.com](https://www.runconverge.com/careers/founding-growth)
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: Y Combinator (S23), General Catalyst, founders of PostHog and Algolia (Nicolas Dessaigne as YC primary partner)
- **Growth Signals**: 116.7% YoY headcount growth (9 employees); 2 active job postings; distributed workforce across US, UK, Netherlands; processes billions in online sales and 6,000+ jobs/second; 200+ brand customers.

## Competitive Advantages
- **Server-side tracking** captures 100% of conversions by tracking from the store backend rather than the browser, overcoming ad-blockers and browser limitations.

- **Vertically integrated stack**: Combines customer data collection, consent management, identity resolution, attribution, data forwarding, and analytics in one platform.

## Strategic Focus
- **Scaling GTM**: Hiring a Founding Growth role to build pipeline across partnerships, content, conferences, and affiliate channels – turning experiments into a repeatable playbook.
