Yext Signs Agreement to Acquire Flamel.ai
Yext has signed a definitive agreement to acquire Flamel.ai. Flamel.ai helps multi-location brands run localized paid campaigns across Google, Meta, and ChatGPT. This news was announced today at Envision, the company's customer conference. The acquisition brings paid media, one of marketing's largest channels, into the Yext platform. This expansion will allow brands to act on Scout's competitive insights and drive more customers to their doors. Paid media will join search, listings, reviews, webpages, and social as channels that teams and agents can act on with Scout's new multiplayer agent harness. The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of FY27, which ends January 31, 2027, subject to customary closing conditions. Yext expects to fund the transaction with cash on hand. "Every marketer knows the frustration of paying for a click they would have earned anyway," said Michael Walrath, chairman and CEO of Yext. "Scout already sees where each location is winning and where it's losing to competitors. Bringing paid media execution into Yext lets marketers spend where it changes the outcome, not where they're already ahead."
Yext Launches Multiplayer Agent Harness to Expand Marketing Platform
Yext continues to rapidly expand its leading agentic marketing platform by announcing a multiplayer agent harness built for marketing teams. The new agent harness creates a shared, context-rich workspace in Scout where corporate teams, field teams, partners, and agents work side by side toward the same goal. With Scout's new multiplayer agent harness, marketing teams, partners, franchisees, and local managers work from the same data and direct the same agents. Scout monitors continuously every surface where the brand and its competitors show up: traditional and AI search, listings, reviews, webpages, social, and more. When something needs attention, Scout brings it to the team rather than waiting to be asked, from the full portfolio down to a single location. The agents act on it across those same surfaces.

Yext Launches New SMB Product Corvo AI and Expands Marketing Platform
