Industry's First Interactive and Custom Emoji Platform Unveiled at CTIA


LAS VEGAS - Sept. 9, 2016 Today, Karmies, in partnership with Pinsight Media, announced the launch of the market’s first interactive emoji platform connecting brands and users in a real-time social environment. Representing the next evolution of mobile content, this unique platform is completely customizable and enables on-demand delivery of personalized content.

"Leveraging the 6 billion emojis and 23 billion texts sent on a daily basis, the opportunities for this type of technology are endless. Brands now have a new and innovative way to engage with their most valued audience in a social environment and publishers benefit from the additional revenue stream created by these actions,” said Megan Haines, CEO of Karmies.

Karmies - a 2016 Sprint Accelerator powered by Techstars - in partnership with Pinsight Media, has already demonstrated strong performance in beta with early adopters and third-party messaging apps, such as Loopy for Telegram.

“We have a strong history of innovation and partnering with Karmies further illustrates that commitment. We are thrilled with the market reception, adoption and performance thus far and look forward to continued success,“ added Kevin McGinnis, head of Pinsight Media.

Haines also commented, “Given the aggressive growth trends within the emoji marketing space, our goal is to provide marketers with the tools and features they need to continue to enrich campaigns. Combining this level of customization and targeting will enable marketers to deepen the existing relationships and add value.”
