We intend to invest heavily in increasing the performance of our system to deliver the accuracy, clarity and actionability commensurate with being the standard for influence.”To do so, Fernandez said that Klout will need to greatly expand the number of services that are analyzed in calculating the Klout Score and provide a much richer consumer experience.Says Bing Gordon, “People are hungry to get even more meaning from their daily social media use, and Klout is creating an important and new standard measure of relevance. I hope everyone who reads this shares this message so my Klout score goes up!”With this new round of funding, Klout has now raised more than $10 million to date.
