Our state-of-the-art turnkey real-time behavioural analytics and individually targeted in-game marketing increase online game revenue by substantially improving player satisfaction, as well as the number of paying players and average revenue per player.”

“Alan is a great addition to the team. His decades of experience in the games industry are incredibly valuable to us in our work for leading online game publishers. Alan understands the great value that our products can add by data mining the massive amounts of player information stored by online game publishers, especially in free-to-play Facebook games, MMO’s and virtual worlds that generate revenue from the purchase of virtual goods.”
