MongoDB raised $311M in funding and is now a publicly traded US corporation: https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/mongodb-inc#section-...

CouchDB is a community-run Apache Software Foundation project (that has corporate contributors as well as individual contributors) at a much lower scale than MongoDB.

Of course MongoDB’s marketing is better, they are spending a lot of money on it. If you’d like to help out with CouchDB’s marketing, we can always use another helping hand :)
