About Us

A fast-growing digital insights consultancy

Curve is a team of brand strategists, insight analysts, data scientists and analytics engineers who turn diverse digital data into actionable insights.

We pride ourselves on gaining a fresh understanding of the consumer by analysing data from across an ecosystem of latest digital sources and tools; from search and social, forums and reviews, web and clickstream, and more. But, it doesn’t stop there!

Our young and vibrant team works hard to decode data and make the complex simple, for all our clients. We go beyond insights and data analysis, forming strategic partnerships with our clients to ensure success.

The Curve team is fuelled by passion and a commitment to excellence. We thrive on solving problems swiftly, whilst maintaining the highest of standards.

FOUNDERS’ STORY

An ambition to help brands get closer to consumers

In January 2019, Alicia and James took a leap of faith, leaving their consulting jobs to embark on a mission to build something new. Their experience working with leading consumer brands showed them the world moves too fast to wait for traditional sources of insight. A new approach was needed.

Whether it’s making a search, leaving a review, or just simply browsing a website, consumers create a huge digital footprint as they move around the internet. James and Alicia founded Curve with an ambition to help brands get closer to consumers by pushing the boundaries of analysing the online world.
