From big data processing infrastructure to low latency interactive visualisation tools, we help companies unlock the value in their data

How can we help you?

The global economy runs on data, yet the challenges companies face to create value from it are getting harder and harder.

We tackle the big technical problems at the core of your domain, freeing your team and your schedule to focus on the things your business does best.

As performance nuts, scale and interactivity are in our blood; as product design obsessives, everything we build starts with the needs of people.
