Download the full case study

Pixlee’s Personalized Visual Marketing SaaS platform sits at the intersection of photos and data, helping brands navigate the user-­generated world of today. By means of contextual information, such as hashtags, Pixlee is able to collect content that is relevant to a brand and turn the barrage of photos from various user­-generated platforms into a source of high quality content. More importantly, Pixlee curates and repurposes the images, and identifies the highest performing content for each and every use case.

Redis Labs is a straightforward and reliable way for us to support top brands across the world. They have great customer support, and whenever I needed anything, they've always come back quickly and with an immediate solution. These guys are doing it right.
