Yext, Inc., founded in 2006 and headquartered in New York, New York, specializes in structuring and disseminating critical business information to address consumer queries across North America and globally. The company's core offering is the Yext platform, a cloud-based solution that enables clients to precisely control the facts about their businesses, manage their online content and landing pages, and oversee customer reviews. This is accomplished by leveraging a vast "knowledge network" comprising roughly 200 digital touchpoints, such as mapping services, mobile applications, search engines, intelligent GPS systems, digital assistants, specialized directories, and social media channels, allowing businesses to easily update and maintain their information. The platform facilitates the centralized management of diverse data points, including store details (name, address, phone number, holiday hours), professional credentials (headshots, areas of expertise, educational background), job specifications (title, description), and frequently asked questions. Yext primarily serves organizations within the healthcare, retail, and financial services sectors.
