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. In November 2014, Livefyre launched a content marketing and engagement marketing platform called Livefyre Studio.
In May 2016, Adobe Systems agreed to purchase Livefyre, planning to allow customers to monetize comments made using Livefyre. In October 2016, Livefyre shut down its Community Comments WordPress plugin in order to focus exclusively on enterprise-level customers.
