description: 'Buddy Media was a social media marketing and advertising platform (founded 2007, backed
  by ggv-capital, insight-partners and ivp) that helped brands manage publishing, engagement and paid
  campaigns across Facebook, Twitter and other social networks. It was acquired by Salesforce in 2012
  and folded into the Salesforce Marketing Cloud (Social Studio) product line; the buddymedia.com domain
  now redirects to salesforce.com/marketing. No standalone Buddy Media public API, developer portal or
  first-party SDK remains — this network entry is retained as a historical martech company stub.'
