Since our inception in 2014, Sonar has come a long way to deliver our partners the enterprise platform they use today. It is due to our exceptional customer experience, engineering, sales, and marketing teams that we are now a leader in the business text messaging space. In December 2019, Sonar was acquired by Marchex Inc., a leading provider of call tracking and analytics solutions. With Marchex's support and resources, especially their industry-leading artificial intelligence technology, we will be able to enhance our platform and accelerate our mission.
