Betaout, a customer intelligence and marketing automation platform for E-commerce companies, raised an undisclosed amount of funding from SEA focused East Ventures and angel investors.
This funding is earmarked by Betaout to bolster its operations in Indonesia, and other parts of South East Asia, expand their clientele, and focus on product development. Plans are underway to enhance its mobile offerings, and introduce newer features on its platform such as machine learning, live chat plug-ins, etc.
Indonesia presents a great opportunity for E-commerce among other emerging Asian economies, with current projections putting this archipelago nation's E-market at $130 billion by 2020 (coming third behind China and India).
Ankit Maheshwari, CEO and Co-founder of Betaout said, "Indonesia is an important market for us and having the support and domain expertise of East Ventures will help us in executing our vision of enabling e-commerce marketers across South East Asia to retain their customers and drive better ROI".
Prior to this investment, Betaout has been serving multiple SEA based companies, such as Tokopedia, Ralali, Tripvisto, Lemonilo, etc. The Betaout platform has helped these e-commerce companies to get better analytics on their customers and personalize & automate their marketing campaigns.
Speaking on the investment, East Ventures Cofounder & Managing Partner Mr. Willson said, "We are very pleased to partner with the Betaout team, seeing the efforts and innovations that the team has achieved since their founding.
