Letter from the founders

Just 12 months ago, we set off on our own to help build data-driven organizations and to make data a more collaborative, inclusive, and accessible field. Despite the bumps, setbacks, and real challenges we've all faced this year, we're ending 2020 full of pride and gratitude for everything we've been able to accomplish.

Of course, we haven't undertaken this journey alone. We've leaned on our community, our extended team, our advisors, and partnerships to bring this company and mission to life. Before we get swept away into all of the exciting things we have planned for next year, we wanted to share a moment of retrospection, and express our enormous gratitude to everyone who helped us along the way.

Thank you! signed Gabi and Leah
