AUSTIN, TX--(Marketwired - May 16, 2013) - Mass Relevance, the technology leader in social curation and integration, today announced that it has passed key company milestones as demand accelerates for social experiences that engage users and boost brand loyalty. As of May 15, the company's platform has integrated 25 billion pieces of content into dynamic visualizations on digital displays ranging from TV and second screens through billboards, stadium displays, websites, mobile apps, conference centers and in-store displays.

"We're very pleased to announce the latest in a series of significant milestones for Mass Relevance," said Sam Decker, founder and CEO of Mass Relevance. "Over the years, we've pursued several business and technology innovations in service of our clients: Eighteen months ago, we became Twitter's first partner licensed to re-syndicate content for display, partnered with other social platforms, and built the first-of-its-kind suite of turnkey social experience products. We've curated billions of social conversations and photos into the largest scale TV, brand and sport experiences. Our innovation continues with several patents pending and plans to double our R&D team over the next year."
