About Handraise

Founded in 2023, Handraise is an always-on media intelligence platform for narrative control. The companies we work with include the world’s most influential brands and our investors include Silverton Partners, Floodgate, and Bill Wood Ventures.

Our Founder previously founded PR analytics startup TrendKite, which scaled into the most widely used PR analytics platform in the world and was acquired by Cision (NYSE:CISN) for $225M.

We’re a competitive, tight-knit team in Austin, TX. We value autonomy, ownership, and grit — and we’re looking for people who share the same fire to win in competitive environments, thrive in ambiguity, and want to help us build a generational company.
