A new chapter for Storyclash: joining forces with Kolsquare
Storyclash is entering a new chapter. We’re joining Kolsquare – Europe’s leading influencer marketing platform and certified B Corporation. Together, we’re accelerating our growth and actively shaping the future of influencer marketing.
Building Storyclash, step by step
Storyclash was founded in 2016 with a clear vision: make creator marketing measurable. Understand social media influence through data and technology, and turn it into a real performance driver.
“We’ve built Storyclash into one of the leading SaaS providers for influencer marketing in the DACH region through
continuous innovation – especially in AI. We’re proud of that.”
Andreas Gutzelnig, Co-Founder & CEO, Storyclash
Over the years, we’ve established ourselves as a trusted partner – delivering deep insights, scalable workflows, and data-driven decisions. The market has evolved massively, and expectations around technology, data quality, and transparency have continued to rise.
Why joining Kolsquare makes sense
Influencer marketing is evolving rapidly. AI is revolutionizing how influence is measured and activated. We’ve built one of the most advanced platforms on the market for exactly that.
But to not just keep pace, but continue leading the direction, we needed the right environment for our next phase of growth. Kolsquare provides exactly that.
Since late 2024, Kolsquare has been part of the team.blue group – a leading European digital enabler. Together, we’re combining technological excellence with clear growth momentum.
“What really convinced us: the deep alignment in what drives us. The role of AI in the future of influencer marketing,
the focus on data protection and sustainability – both teams are pulling in the same direction.”
Andreas Gutzelnig, Co-Founder & CEO, Storyclash
What Storyclash gains from this next phase
This step allows us to move significantly faster on multiple levels. The combination of Storyclash’s AI expertise and Kolsquare’s technology stack, reach, and product ecosystem creates space for more ambitious developments.
At the same time, presence across multiple European markets opens new perspectives and strengthens our position in the region. We’re staying true to our values: As a certified B Corporation, Kolsquare has embedded ethics, transparency, and sustainability – exactly the principles that have always driven us.
A European vision for the future of influence
In a digital landscape increasingly dominated by global platforms, we’re building a strong European player that combines advanced technology with a clear ethical framework.
This step is the natural continuation of a journey that began almost a decade ago – now with the reach, resources, and momentum that this new chapter enables.
“Together with Kolsquare, we can innovate faster and deliver even more value to our customers. This is the logical next step for us – and we’re excited to actively shape the future of AI-powered influencer marketing in Europe.”
Andreas Gutzelnig, Co-Founder & CEO, Storyclash
