Broker Genius: Funding, Investors & Team (Aug 2026)

Founded in 2013 by CEO Sam Sherman, Broker Genius provides a pricing automation technology platform in the live event secondary market. The company’s technology enables ticket resellers to use real-time market data to automatically adjust ticket prices. Further advancements in the technology will enable ticket resellers to augment the quantitative market information with qualitative variables. For example, when pricing a baseball game, the company’s software augments market related information with qualitative factors, such as opposing team, starting pitchers, weather and standings. Broker Genius currently has over 100 employees. To accommodate customers’ needs, the company recently opened two new offices, in Reno, Nevada, to expand support and pricing coverage, and in Barcelona to continue to optimize the product.

About FundedIQ's Broker Genius Funding Data

FundedIQ tracks announced funding rounds and refreshes this profile every week. Round dates, stages and amounts are normalised to a single format, converted to US dollars, and de-duplicated: two records of the same round announced days apart are merged, and two genuinely different rounds are kept apart on the amounts they disclose. Amounts shown are the disclosed figures only — a round announced without a number is listed and excluded from the total rather than estimated.

Employee counts are reported bands, not exact headcounts. Founder and executive names carry the job title on record. Anything we do not hold for Broker Genius is left off this page rather than filled in.
