Business Description

Braze, Inc. operates a global customer engagement platform designed to foster meaningful interactions between consumers and brands. Its comprehensive suite of tools includes robust data ingestion capabilities. These feature Braze software development kits (SDKs) for automatic data collection and the delivery of various mobile and web notifications, integrated in-application/in-browser messages, and content cards, all seamlessly adaptable to diverse digital interfaces and application development frameworks. Additionally, a REST API facilitates data import/export and workflow automation across Braze and clients' existing technological ecosystems. The platform also enables the synchronization of user cohorts from partner sources. For customer understanding, Braze offers advanced classification functionalities. This includes segmentation tools that allow businesses to define reusable consumer groups based on attributes, past events, or predictive propensity scores. Segment insights provide analytical views into how different segments perform relative to key metrics and help identify the underlying factors driving segment membership. Furthermore, a predictive suite assists in pinpointing high-value consumer demographics. The company further provides modules for personalization and decisive actions. Crucially, Braze's orchestration offerings empower brands to manage complex customer journeys. Its signature 'Canvas' tool allows for the visual mapping of multi-step, cross-channel messaging experiences—ideal for onboarding sequences, nurturing campaigns, or win-back strategies. Other orchestration elements include the ability to run targeted campaigns (single or multi-channel) for specific user segments, event and API-driven triggering mechanisms, controls for message frequency and rate limiting, intelligent content selection, and extensive reporting alongside analytics. Founded in 2011, the company was initially known as Appboy, Inc. before adopting its current name, Braze, Inc., in November 2017. Its corporate headquarters are situated in New York, New York.

Revenue & Net Income Trend
The directional story — useful even when net income is negative.
Last updated: Jun 21, 2026 7:41pm (5d ago)
Revenue
The top line — total sales before any costs or taxes are subtracted. A measure of how much business the company is doing.
Net Income
The bottom line — profit left after subtracting all expenses, interest, and taxes from revenue. Reflects accounting profitability, but includes non-cash items like depreciation, so it isn't the same as cash earned.
Operating Cash Flow
The real cash generated by the day-to-day business — selling products, paying suppliers, collecting from customers. Calculated from net income by adding back non-cash items and adjusting for timing (unpaid bills, unsold inventory). When OCF consistently lags net income, the reported profit may not be converting to real money.
