Data

$1.5M to give you the data and insights you need to succeed

February 16, 2023

Meet Cube Asia! They're here to share in-depth market data and competitive insights on the e-commerce space in Southeast Asia. Now, they've just raised a $1.5M seed round led by Wavemaker Partners!

  • Their customers? Consumer brands like ESQA Cosmetics, retailers like Little Farms, and institutional investment firms like the IFC.

Investor check. M Venture Partners and several angels also joined in!

👼🏻: Victor Paterno (CEO, 7-Eleven Philippines), Raghav Kapoor (Co-founder, Smartkarma), Julian Artope (Co-founder, Zenyum)

  • It's their first funding round!

🙌🏼 No more guessing!

Founded in 2022, they have a big data machine called The Cube that processes huge amounts of data — like public data sources and primary research.

  • It continuously figures out trends, patterns and correlations using probabilistic modeling to create an accurate and granular picture of SEA's online retail landscape.

✅ The goal?

Allow their customers to make data-driven decisions for everything. It could be pricing, discounts, strategic opportunity sizing, assortment, market share assessments, influencer engagements, campaign planning or even channel sales forecasting!

  • This way, they can power quicker and more profitable online growth in SEA's already $170B e-commerce market!
  • There's been a huge lack of market data and insights on SEA — especially for e-commerce.

🤷🏻‍♀️ Ok, so what?

Thanks to the knowledge they get from The Cube, they've launched their first product. It's called MeterCube for TikTok Shop!

If you subscribe to MeterCube, you can access detailed data and insights, including the latest rankings of popular TikTok accounts, top-selling products in different categories, pricing and discount trends and category-specific market sizing.

  • With this, your TikTok Shop revenue and profits will only go one way — up. 📈
  • It currently has data and insights on six markets in SEA.

Apart from that, they can also help you with building or growing your business, potential new investments or product development!

💰 What's with the $$$?

They'll be doubling down on growing their technology, product and data teams to improve their data quality and MeterCube platform.

  • They'll also be expanding their coverage to other e-commerce and social commerce channels like Shopee, Lazada and Instagram this year!
