Real-time analytics is pretty hot right now.
Chartbeat, which I’ve posted about before, is one of the leaders in real-time analytics. They have over 2,500 paying customers and, as of 10 minutes ago, were tracking 1,177,050 simultaneous users (image above shows the real-time counter from their homepage). They also just raised a $3m round led by Index Ventures (and also including O’Reilly AlphaTech Ventures, Freestyle Capital, Lowercase Capital and Jason Calacanis).
Other players in the space who’ve been getting some traction recently include GetClicky and Reinvigorate. Both are being used by more sites than Chartbeat, but due to some high profile supporters it seems Chartbeat is getting more of the real-time buzz.
