mParticle is an enterprise customer data platform, owned by Rokt, that collects app and web data, resolves it into customer profiles and sends it to 300+ marketing and analytics tools. It is built for consumer brands with developers on staff. There are no public prices: customers prepay mParticle Credits that usage draws down.
Rokt and mParticle announced their merger on 16 January 2025, with Rokt investing $300 million and taking ownership of the company.
mParticle keeps its own name, website and docs, and also appears as 'Rokt mParticle' on Rokt's site.
Strong plumbing for large consumer brands; budget and model usage before signing.
