Buddy Media

Buddy Media was a social media marketing and advertising platform (founded 2007, backed by ggv-capital, insight-partners and ivp) that helped brands manage publishing, engagement and paid campaigns across Facebook, Twitter and other social networks. It was acquired by Salesforce in 2012 and folded into the Salesforce Marketing Cloud (Social Studio) product line; the buddymedia.com domain now redirects to salesforce.com/marketing. No standalone Buddy Media public API, developer portal or first-party SDK remains — this network entry is retained as a historical martech company stub.

Buddy Media is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Martech, Social Media, Marketing, and Advertising.
