AlertMedia, a provider of risk intelligence and critical event management solutions, has acquired Pyrra Technologies, a company known for its AI-enabled social media monitoring and intelligence platform.
Pyrra’s platform monitors and analyzes over 3 billion digital conversations annually from more than 45 social and dark web sources, providing enterprises with valuable insights for various use cases, including executive protection, event security, brand monitoring and reputational risk management.
AlertMedia aims to help organizations protect their workforces and assets. This acquisition enhances AlertMedia’s ability to identify and respond to emerging threats by integrating Pyrra’s advanced monitoring capabilities. As part of the merger, Pyrra’s co-founders, Welton Chang and Eric Curwin, have joined AlertMedia in leadership roles, with a focus on further developing Pyrra’s technology. The combined solution is set to become available later in 2025.
