The map

Published by Envoyra, which also works in this category. We leave ourselves off the map and out of the counts so the record stays neutral.

38 of 173 companies are in a counted deal (31 raised a round, 7 only bought or were bought); 19 of the 38 are in AI search marketing platforms.

Method

How to read the map. Each company is a pill, listed under its area. A green pill is in a counted deal and links to that deal in the table below: a neon dot means it raised a funding round, a blue dot means it bought a company or was bought. A white pill has no counted deal and links to the company’s own site. Hover a name for what it does.

Who is on the map. Each company was checked on its own website or, for a few, in a published source. Rows we could not confirm are left out. Envoyra works in this category, so we leave ourselves off the map and out of every count.

Deals. A deal counts only when it is in scope and has a published source. Totals add only rounds with a stated amount and currency. Adjacent deals are listed but not counted.

Not a ranking. Companies are listed alphabetically. Being green records a deal, not how good a company is.

How we count

· As of Nov 4, 2026.

Who is listed. We list a company only after checking, on its own website or in a published source, that it offers what we describe. We list a deal only when a published source reports it, and it links to that source. Companies and deals we couldn’t confirm aren’t listed.

What counts. Deals in the core category count toward the totals. Being listed is not a review or an endorsement, and the order is alphabetical.

Adjacent and completion. An adjacent deal is between companies next to this category, not in it: we show it in the ticker and don’t count it. A completion closes an acquisition we already counted when it was announced, so it isn’t counted a second time.

CHECK. Sources disagree on a figure or date. We tag the deal, and leave it out of the totals when the amount itself is unclear.

Money. Amounts are shown as disclosed, in their own currency, and never converted or added across currencies. Totals change only when a sourced row is added or corrected.

Time. The counters start at the beginning of each event’s day, because most sources give a date but no time.
