<p>After raising $4.5 million in venture funding two months ago, Encinitas, CA-based Seismic says it is moving up the food chain in content management software.</p><p>Seismic was founded three years ago, following a lean startup model. CEO Doug Winter tells me the company used much of that time to build out the basic infrastructure of its Web platform, which enables users to pull live data from various online sources for use in charts, graphics, and electronic documents. Seismic developed its technology for native apps running Windows 8 and iOS, "but we very quickly wanted to embrace the fact that companies have made very big investments in some of these big platforms, like SharePoint."</p><p>SharePoint is Microsoft's software platform for sharing documents and collaborating on projects within an organization. And now Seismic says it has integrated its technology so companies can use Seismic within SharePoint to create and manage LiveDocs and pull live data into the SharePoint format.
