Wearable devices like the FitBit and Google Glass have fascinated consumers, but as they become more popular, they become more and more interesting to businesses, too.

The data streaming off of wearables and mobile devices — such as data about how applications are used — could be a gold mine for companies developing mobile and wearable apps. Companies can analyze that information and adjust their applications to make them more compelling.

A startup called OneFold is seizing this opportunity, and now it has some money to keep working on its product. Today OneFold announced a $400,000 seed round.

Former Oracle executive Peter Relan’s Studio 9+ accelerator participated in the round along with angel investors. OneFold is the first business-to-business startup the accelerator has funded.
