NewsWhip, whose technology tracks all the news published by about 5,000 English-language sources, raises $1.1M Seed round.

NewsWhip was founded by Paul Quigley and Andrew Mullaney, and is based in Dublin, Ireland and New York. The founders planned and built the technology behind NewsWhip in 2011 and won a place on the NDRC Launchpad accelerator. The first version of NewsWhip went live in September 2011, earning coverage from the BBC, The Next Web, Mashable, The Inquisitr, Silicon Republic, Killer Startups, and others.
