Convosight was launched in October 2019 by Tamanna Dhamija, Tarun Dhamija and Kartik Bansal. The startup says it is building an ecosystem for community creators on platforms like Facebook, Reddit and Discord so that they can partner with brands and monetise their communities.
Covosight's platform is used by major consumer brands like Reckitt, P&G, Nestle, Abbott, ITC and direct to consumer (D2C) brands like Plum.
The startup claims its user growth increased 10 times in the last 15 months while earnings for community creators via Convosight jumped 25 times in the last 12 months with close to $1 million in total payouts.
