Alerts.com was established in 1998 as a web-based information delivery service, headquartered in Roseland, New Jersey. The firm specialized in developing software that managed and distributed a wide array of notifications, including news, sports updates, event reminders, and stock price changes. Its delivery channels encompassed email, text messages, and voice calls, positioning the company within the communication and social platform software sectors.
The company's business model focused on providing a private label solution for content providers, such as local media outlets and other organizations. This enabled clients to enhance brand engagement, extend the utility of their content, and create new revenue streams. Alerts.com operated at the intersection of text, email, mobile, and push notification technologies, empowering organizations to deploy a robust digital communication strategy.
Throughout its history, Alerts.com secured significant venture capital funding, raising $14 million in a Series B round in July 2000, followed by a Series A round in December 2008. The company's total funding reached $15.2 million. After nearly two decades of operation, the company ceased its activities and is registered as out of business as of June 2016.
