Alumni Q&A

What is the core problem you are solving? Why is this a big problem? What made you decide to work on it?
The founders observed that general-purpose ETL tools support many data stores but perform poorly for any specific pair, often failing to meet performance, reliability, or feature requirements at scale. As a result, users build their own in-house solutions at significant cost, a pattern the founders saw across customers during their time at Microsoft and Google.

Summarized from the founders' answers on their Y Combinator profile.
