History

Livefyre was launched by Jordan Kretchmer and Henry Arlander in December 2009. It began as a commenting platform for bloggers. The company's commenting platform, Livefyre Comments 3, was launched in July 2012. In August 2013, Livefyre launched its Social Native Ad Solutions group.[1] In November 2014, Livefyre launched a content marketing and engagement marketing platform called Livefyre Studio.[2][3]

In May 2016, Adobe Systems agreed to purchase Livefyre, planning to allow customers to monetize comments made using Livefyre. [4] In October 2016, Livefyre shut down its Community Comments WordPress plugin in order to focus exclusively on enterprise-level customers.[5]
