What V12 Data does

V12 Data, now operating as PGM Solutions, is a U.S.-based omnichannel marketing data provider founded in 1998 and headquartered in Matawan, New Jersey. The company builds and licenses proprietary consumer, property, and vehicle data assets — covering 250+ million consumers, 214+ million VINs across all 50 states, and 90%+ of U.S. properties and households — linked through its flagship Factors Suite, which comprises three modules: People Factors (identity and behavior), Home Factors (property and household insights), and Auto Factors (vehicle ownership and real-time in-market behavior). Each module exposes 700+ verified consumer and property attributes with continuous refresh for targeting accuracy. The company also delivers a vertical-specific Home Factors for Insurance product and a suite of data hygiene services (data append, phone append, data hygiene) for record completion.

PGM Solutions monetizes its data through a hybrid sales-led and platform-enabled model. Revenue is generated from data licensing, audience segment sales, data hygiene subscriptions, and managed marketing services, with omnichannel activation delivered through its Velocity Marketing Platform spanning email, social media advertising, direct mail, and connected TV. Pricing is quote-based with annual billing cycles, tailored to data volume, audience selection, and service scope. Distribution occurs across three channels: a direct enterprise sales team for large brands, the Velocity platform for mid-market self-service activation, and OEM-style data licensing for third-party partners. Customer segments are primarily horizontal — anchored in home improvement and home services, automotive, mover/real estate, and consumer goods/retail — with a notable enterprise customer concentration in home improvement retail and contracting. The company employs 101-250 staff and is privately held, with prior institutional backing from ABRY Partners and Brook Venture Partners.
