Granify

Edmonton, Alberta, Canada E-commerce Software Acquired

Granify is an AI-driven e-commerce contextualization platform that helps enterprise retailers increase online conversion rates and sales. Founded in 2011 in Edmonton, Alberta by CEO Jeff Lawrence, Granify's software analyzes thousands of in-session shopper behavioral and contextual signals to identify key moments in each shopper's journey and surface tailored content (social proof, inventory levels, pricing, customized offers) without using personally identifiable information. The company was acquired by Bazaarvoice on December 5, 2023, and now operates as part of Bazaarvoice's Contextual Commerce product within its full-funnel e-commerce suite.
