What Singlespot does

Singlespot is a Paris-based location data analytics company founded in 2015. It deploys a Software Development Kit (SDK) embedded in partner mobile applications that collects consented geolocation signals, including latitude/longitude, IP addresses, advertising identifiers (IDFA/GAID), WiFi networks, and beacon data, with a stated 24-month data retention window and no direct user identification. This raw signal stream is processed through what the company describes as a behavioral inference engine that derives inferred attributes such as travel patterns, home/work locations, transportation modes, and consumer interests, producing an aggregated behavioral layer on top of the raw location graph.

The company monetizes this dataset through four product surfaces sold to B2B enterprise clients: the Singlespot SDK (the collection layer), a Location Data Analytics Platform, Campaign Effectiveness Reporting, and Marketing and Commercial Studies. End customers are advertisers, agencies, publishers, and DSP/SSPs, with pricing handled on a custom basis rather than via published tiers. The company is privately held, sits in the 11–50 employee range, and its most recent disclosed institutional capital event is a Series 2 round of $7,417,728 led by IRIS in April 2018.

As of November 2025, Singlespot is operating under a "Same Signal. New Chapter." positioning and has publicly stated it is being "rebuilt from the ground up," indicating a substantive strategic reset. A related brand, Gokura (gokura.ai), has been surfaced alongside the rebuild; the structural and commercial relationship between Singlespot and Gokura is not defined in the available data.
