Quartr: Public Market Research Company Raises $6 Million

By Amit Chowdhry ● Oct 14, 2024

Quartr, a software and data provider transforming qualitative public market research for finance and investor relations (IR) professionals, announced the closing of a $6 million investment from Altos Ventures.

Altos is a Francisco-based venture capital firm known for its uncommonly patient approach to building companies over the long term, leading them to become early investors and major shareholders of successful companies such as Roblox and Coupang. And Quartr chose Altos as partner due to their shared belief in long-term thinking, Altos’ exceptional track record, and the personal chemistry between their team and the founders of Quartr. The Altos investment will further drive Quartr’s market share growth in the multi-billion-dollar financial services industry. Altos will also take a seat on Quartr’s board, allowing for deeper collaboration and strategic involvement.

Since being founded in 2020, Quartr has emerged as one of the largest distributors of IR material globally, offering a free mobile app, a research platform built for desktop use, and an API. And the company’s flagship product, Quartr Pro, has quickly become an indispensable tool for several of the largest hedge funds, asset managers, and equity research departments globally, as well as the IR and corporate strategy teams of several Fortune 500 companies.
