@joshdance We love what we do and we're great at it. Parse's Database-as-a-Service model never really worked out because large companies preferred to build in-house database infrastructure. When it comes to push, even the largest companies in the world prefer to use a 3rd party solution like ours.

@deanperry Thanks for asking! Our business model is similar to great services like Flurry Analytics and AppAnnie. We get to collect lots of valuable insights on mobile user behavior from the many apps that use our service, these insights are highly valuable to companies who can use it to improve their advertising and market research efforts.
