About Evertune AI:
Evertune is building the first AI discovery platform for modern marketers. As large language models (LLMs) become the go-to source for recommendations – we help brands understand exactly what AI is saying about them, where they stand against competitors, and how to show up more often in AI-powered answers. Our platform turns black-box AI behavior into actionable insights, so marketing teams can make faster, smarter decisions that drive growth. We apply real-time Data Science at scale to accomplish this.

Founded by leaders who helped scale The Trade Desk into the world’s leading ad tech platform, we bring deep expertise in digital advertising, data, and high-growth environments. Now, we’re pioneering a new category at the intersection of AI, SEO, and brand strategy.

Backed by top-tier VC investors and trusted by forward-thinking brands, we move fast, think boldly, and believe the best ideas win – regardless of title. If you're excited about shaping the future of how brands grow in the age of AI, you’ll thrive here.
