sqoop Pitch Deck

Sqoop is a platform that helps business journalists discover news. After only ten months on the market, already one in four business journalists in the U.S. uses Sqoop regularly. When Yahoo and Google inked their new search deal, GeekWire broke the news because they use Sqoop. Time means everything in journalism because the outlet that breaks thenews gets the eyeballs and the revenue. It also uses journalists to gather news by unlocking tips from public data sources like the SEC and the patent office, saving reporters time and helping them break news. The founders are a 20-year PR and journalism veteran from Microsoft & RealNetworks and a longtime search engineer and architect from AOL & Thomson Reuters.
