Maven Clinic launches program for members who want to get pregnant without IVF
The company also expanded access to 12 different provider types for male fertility care
Read more...Street Pulse was borne of two related trends that we’ve been following for the past 12-24 months:
In discussions with clients, we’ve heard that there is a strong interest in alternative media, but that there was an even greater concern about quality. Our clients were not ready to turn on a fire hose of blog content for bankers and other professionals to consume.
So, today, we introduce the Alacra Pulse Platform and its first application, Street Pulse.
Alacra
Pulse has two parts. The underlying platform reads web-based RSS feeds
– from newspapers, magazine, trade publication sites and blogs – and
extracts information from each article or post. We first extract or
tag entities (companies) from each piece of content and then we look
for business events such as an analyst comment, a bankruptcy filing,
news or rumors of an M&A transaction, or a quote by a CEO. On top
of the platform sit a series of event-specific applications, which
drive current awareness, competitive intelligence and idea generation
for users.
Alacra Street Pulse, our first app on the new platform, answers the question “what do key opinion leaders have to say about…” a company today? Street Pulse brings together comments by traditional analysts – sell-side, industry and credit analysts – with those of a group of hand-selected bloggers.
Alacra Pulse uses the freemium business model. There’s a free version at https://pulse.alacra.com. That version is supported by advertising plus links to contextually relevant content for purchase at the Alacra Store.
There’s also a professional version, which provides added functionality like portfolios, email alerts, information sharing features and advanced search capabilities.
In the coming months, we will launch additional event-specific applications focusing on M&A deals & rumors, distressed companies, CEO quotes and more.
I'd love to hear your feedback on Street Pulse. Please visit Street Pulse and play with the app. Let me know what you think, either in the comments below or drop me a note at barry-dot-graubart at alacra-dot-com.
