A startup organization providing services or products to address needs across various sectors, focused on general business operations and solutions.
Directr is a Boston, Massachusetts-based software company that develops mobile video creation and editing applications designed for consumers and small businesses. The platform provides storyboard templates and automated editing tools that allow users to shoot, assemble, and publish professional-quality marketing videos directly from their smartphones without requiring any prior video production experience or expensive camera equipment. Prior to its eventual corporate acquisition, the startup secured approximately $1.7 million in seed funding from a syndicate of notable venture capital firms including NextView Ventures, Boston Seed Capital, and Advancit Capital. In August 2014, the technology giant Google acquired the company for an undisclosed valuation to integrate its mobile video creation capabilities directly into the YouTube advertising ecosystem for small and medium-sized enterprise advertising clients. Directr was originally founded in 2012 by entrepreneurs Max Goldman and Eliot Mather.
