Our Story
We exist to help the world better understand people through data. Our mission is to transform how data is used to discover new insights and empower human driven decisions.
The client is changing the game as to how companies ingest, save and recycle their market research. We work in the market research industry which is full of antiquated tools that make it difficult to access and use important data. Our aim is to use modern technology along with wide range of relevant data to make it easy to research market behavior and to provide valuable insights for our customers.
We are just over 4 years old and have a working product with paying customers and a steady revenue stream. P&G, Google, and Whirlpool are just some of our Fortune 500 clients with many more to come.
Our team, located in Chicago, is small yet mighty. This gives you a unique opportunity to make an immediate impact and to get involved and influence all aspects of the business. If you don’t shy away from tough, but rewarding, challenges - let’s chat!
