About Klout

Klout is the standard for influence

It all started in late 2007 while Joe Fernandez was recovering from jaw surgery. Mouth wired shut, he relied on social media to keep his friends and family up-to-date on his recovery. There was something amazing to him about being able to instantly share his thoughts and opinions with the people who trusted him the most. More importantly, since this was happening on the social web it was scalable and measurable.

Obsessed with this idea of influence on the social web, Klout was born and an amazing team of scientists, engineers, thinkers and dreamers banded together to create a standard where one had never been before.

We think you are influential

Klout isn’t about figuring out who is on the “A-list.” We believe that every person who creates content has influence. Our mission is to help every individual understand and leverage their influence.

We want to share your influence with the world

We all have the movies, bands, restaurants or games that we made popular within our networks. We believe it’s time the impact of the individual is recognized. Take part in the Klout revolution.
