Our role is to help brands understand how the digital landscape works, from the geological underpinnings of Google search, to the rough peaks of the Facebook newsfeed, from wilds of forums and blogs to the clean streets of the Apple App Store. Mavens feeds hungrily on the raw data of the internet, and uses it to map and understand the paths that brands should tread.
