Startup profile: DataClarity, making digital transformation real (+ video)

As the amount of data produced daily continues to explode worldwide, Raleigh startup DataClarity says its platform helps clients make sense of all the information and turns digital transformation from hype into reality.

Quickly finding tracking and becoming profitable, DataClarity has grown to include 75 employees. And earlier this year the company won an IBM Beacon award for digital marketing excellence.

Beacons are awarded to select IBM Business Partners that “deliver outstanding solutions across IBM’s broad product and service portfolio to drive business value for customers.”

So what’s the DataClarity story?

“We help organizations from the mid-market to the Fortune 500 prepare, visualize, analyze, share, and utilize data, and rapidly transform it into actionable information with extensible analytics, data science, and business applications,” says CEO Mark Mueller.

“Our analytics and data science platform was developed from the beginning as a highly-scalable business user-driven solution with many integrated capabilities not found in other enterprise tools. The platform can connect to any data source with powerful data federation, caching, visualization, storyboarding, and advanced analytics capabilities, and is powered by a distributed enterprise computing architecture.”

The Q&A:

What is the focus of your business?

We help organizations from the mid-market to the Fortune 500 prepare, visualize, analyze, share, and utilize data, and rapidly transform it into actionable information with extensible analytics, data science, and business applications.

What is the top pain point/business application you are seeking to address?

Growing at a compound annual growth rate of 42%, by 2020 the world will create 50 times the amount of digital data as in 2010, predicted to be 53 zettabytes (53 trillion gigabytes) by the turn of the decade.

Due to changing competitive landscapes, more and more organizations are now focused on accelerated digital transformation, with data as their lifeblood. This transformation demands a fundamental change in the systems that enable people with the power of information across the enterprise to improve customer experience, operational efficiencies, and optimizing performance.

Our products help organizations accelerate this digital transformation, and empower everyone to understand data fast and easy with a business user-driven analytics and data science platform.

What makes it unique?

Our analytics and data science platform was developed from the beginning as a highly-scalable business user-driven solution with many integrated capabilities not found in other enterprise tools. The platform can connect to any data source with powerful data federation, caching, visualization, storyboarding, and advanced analytics capabilities, and is powered by a distributed enterprise computing architecture.

The platform also provides enterprise portal capabilities that integrate many other analytics and data science platforms allowing organizations to deploy business applications employing existing data, metadata, content, and tools.

Why should investors be interested in your firm?

The company successfully developed the platform with senior-level management and technical teams who leveraged their expertise in business analytics working with a broad spectrum of companies from the mid-market to the Fortune 500 in many different industries.

The company has solid financials, no debt, and funded the entire platform research and development solely from profitable business operations.

The platform is proven and being used in a number of Fortune 500 customers who have deployed it for very strategic use cases and requirements — the company is now ready to accelerate growth with more partnerships and investment in marketing, sales, customer care, and ongoing research and development.
