Namely is the first talent management platform built for high growth industries like media, advertising, and technology. The platform enables organizations to manage their teams, retain key employees and increase margins.
For years, organizations have struggled to track how people were allocated across accounts and functional teams. This was typically done with spreadsheets, email and scraps of paper. Namely replaces all of this with a robust database and elegant visualizations of all of the people on a particular account.
Namely provides secure access to a company’s own data from anywhere in the world. Compensation data, performance reviews and employment history are available through the platform in seconds.
Namely is led by professionals from the advertising and technology industry. Founder and CEO Matt Straz served as senior partner for seven years at MEC, the global media buying agency. Matt also co-founded Pictela, the ad platform that was acquired by AOL in 2010.
The investors behind Namely include over a dozen executives from some of the world’s most important advertising and technology companies.
Together they have invested $1 million in Namely.
