Berlin, Germany – 04 22, 2026 – ProvenExpert, a leading platform for online reputation and customer reviews, has acquired marketing automation platform Xara to connect verified customer feedback with automated marketing content. By combining their technologies, the two companies aim to connect customer feedback with automated content creation, enabling businesses and independent professionals to turn verified reviews into marketing assets more easily.
The acquisition reflects a growing shift in digital marketing: customer trust and authentic feedback are becoming central drivers of marketing performance. By combining reputation management with automated content creation, ProvenExpert and Xara aim to help businesses turn real customer experiences into marketing content that can be used directly across websites, campaigns and social media.
The joint platform will allow companies to collect, verify and showcase customer reviews while automatically transforming them into marketing content. This includes website elements featuring testimonials, campaign materials and other branded assets built directly from real customer experiences.
In today’s digital economy, trust plays an increasingly decisive role in purchasing decisions. At the same time, automation and artificial intelligence are transforming how marketing content is created and distributed. By bringing together reputation management and marketing automation, ProvenExpert and Xara aim to help businesses translate customer feedback into marketing content more quickly and efficiently.
“With Xara, we are closing the gap between strong customer reviews and measurable lead activation,” said Remo Fyda. “Our customers will soon be able to automatically turn verified reviews into marketing assets – making trust visible directly in their campaigns through elements such as integrated star ratings, trust seals or customer quotes.”
ProvenExpert enables businesses to collect customer reviews from multiple sources, verify them and display them publicly to strengthen online reputation. Xara complements this system with tools for the automated creation and distribution of marketing content, including social media posts for platforms such as LinkedIn and Instagram, landing pages and visual campaign assets.
Together, the platforms create a streamlined workflow: collect customer feedback, make trust visible, and turn it directly into marketing content.
“Content without trust has little impact – and reviews lose value if they remain unused,” said Matt Bolton. “By connecting our platforms, companies can translate real customer feedback directly into marketing campaigns.”
In the short term, the companies plan to introduce a technical integration through Single Sign-On as well as the synchronization of profile and brand data. Future development steps will focus on embedding verified reviews directly into marketing templates, campaign workflows and automated content creation.
