About Schema App

At Schema App, our purpose is to build meaningful connections, with each other, our customers and the data so that we are all understood.

Our Founding Story

In 2011, Mark van Berkel founded Hunch Manifest, a company focused on building products using semantic technology. Back then, there were few people that understood both semantic technology and SEO, but Mark understood both. Soon after, Martha van Berkel decided to quit her corporate job of 14 years at Cisco to join Mark on his entrepreneurial journey.

During their Schema Markup journey, Mark and Martha found it challenging to embed Schema Markup in Microdata or RDFa format due to its instability. To overcome this, he built a tool (now known as the Schema App Editor) that allowed users to generate the JSON-LD code by filling out a form and manage it centrally. When Google finally started accepting JSON-LD encoded structured data for their rich results, Mark and Martha decided to go all in and focus exclusively on Schema Markup. 

Schema App Founders

Schema App was officially launched in 2016 to empower digital marketers to do sophisticated Schema Markup at scale and support them from strategy to results. Since then, we’ve journeyed to become the world’s #1 Enterprise Structured Data Solution.
