AddToAny is a universal sharing platform that can be integrated into a website by use of a web widget or plugin. Once installed, visitors to the website can share or save an item using a variety of services. AddToAny makes money by selling anonymous aggregate sharing data to advertisers.[1]

History

[edit]

The platform launched in March 2006.[citation needed]

In July 2011, AddToAny was acquired by social commerce site Lockerz.[2] Two years later in June 2013, it was acquired by Pat Diven II, the original founder.[1][3][3][4]
