Leading social listening platform acquired and integrated into Meltwater

Overview

Sysomos was a social media analytics and listening platform founded in 2008 that provided enterprise organizations with tools to monitor, analyze, and derive insights from social media conversations and online content. The company offered solutions for social listening, audience analysis, influencer identification, and competitive intelligence across multiple social networks and online sources. Sysomos was acquired by Marketwire (later NASDAQ) in 2010, then became part of Meltwater in 2018 when Meltwater acquired NASDAQ's PR and social media monitoring businesses. Following the acquisition, Sysomos was integrated into Meltwater's broader media intelligence and social listening platform. While the Sysomos brand and some product names were maintained for a period, the technology and capabilities were ultimately absorbed into Meltwater's unified platform, with Meltwater becoming the primary brand for the combined offering.
