Our take
Applecart uses publicly available data, both online and offline to build a map of real-world interpersonal relationships, which clients can leverage to run more rewarding advertising and marketing campaigns.
The company was founded on the ideal that social influence, or word of mouth, is the most impactful motivator. Thus, its social graph technology theoretically allows for more accurate targeted advertising than geo-fencing or demographic targeting.
Applecart started out on political campaigns, encouraging people to get involved in elections and boost low voter turnout. In the last few years however, the company has begun to move further into commercial work with the likes of Boeing, as well as nonprofits such as The Business Roundtable.
Interestingly, one of Applecart’s major backers, and now a board member, is Ari Emanuel, the CEO of Endeavor – an entertainment and media agency which owns the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). While it’s not clear that the UFC is a customer of Applecart at present, this does give a strong indication of the level of clients that the company now has access to.
