Wetpaint is a next-generation media platform company that uses its proprietary state-of-the-art technologies and expertise in social media to capture, engage and activate audiences.
The company’s vision is to power a portfolio of best-in-class media properties; the first, Wetpaint Entertainment, delights 18-34 year-old women with in-depth coverage of their favorite TV shows, stars and fashion. Wetpaint Entertainment attracts more than 10 million monthly unique visitors and has over 1.7 million Facebook fans.
The rapid success of Wetpaint Entertainment is due to the company’s innovation around knowing its audience. This is made possible through Wetpaint’s proprietary Social Distribution System, a patent-pending technology-based social experimentation platform. This system is Wetpaint’s competitive advantage; it optimizes the packaging and distribution of every item of content to the right audience at the right place at the right time on the social web.
Founded by Internet pioneer Ben Elowitz, and with offices in Seattle and New York, Wetpaint is backed by Accel Partners, the investors behind Facebook and Groupon.
