ClearSlide is a SaaS-based Sales Engagement platform that lets users share content / sales materials via email links or their viewer’s link in a ‘Live Pitch’. ClearSlide is designed for sales and marketing teams, accessible primarily via an annual subscription model. Users can also sign up for a limited time free trial of the software with full access to all the features of a regular subscription.

The company’s headquarters are in San Francisco’s financial district, with a satellite office in New York City in the Citigroup Center.

History

ClearSlide was founded in October 2009, funded by the founders and through initial subscribers. The company did not fundraise until the year following its launch.[1] In August 2012, ClearSlide raised a $28 million series B round of financing, announcing that it was to fuel their rapid growth and expansion plans. On March 5, 2013 the company bought SlideRocket from VMware.[2] A second acquisition was announced on July 2, 2013, when ClearSlide bought Crunched, a rival cloud-based sales engagement platform.[3] In February 2014, ClearSlide raised $50 million in Series C funding from their partnership with Social+Capital Partnership. This led to additional contributions from Greylock Partners, Bessemer Venture Partners and Felicis Ventures.[4]
