DATA PLATFORMS
Data Platforms
Off-the-shelf BI covers the first six months and then stops growing with you. We build dashboards, databases, and ETL that are yours to own, yours to change, and fast enough that your team stops exporting to spreadsheets.
WHAT IS INCLUDED
The work, in detail
01
Custom dashboards
Designed around how your team actually works, not a Tableau template. Typed, version-controlled, and cheap to evolve.
02
Databases and warehouses
Postgres, Snowflake, ClickHouse, or whatever the data actually wants. Schema design that reflects the business, not a vendor's demo.
03
ETL and integrations
Pipelines from QuickBooks, Stripe, Airtable, Salesforce, internal APIs, anywhere the source of truth lives. Observable, idempotent, boring in the good way.
04
Data modeling
Normalized where it matters, denormalized where queries demand it. Documented so the next engineer can pick it up in an afternoon.
05
Analytics instrumentation
Product and marketing events wired through a single spec. No more three teams sending the same event three different ways.
06
Migrations away from BI tools
When Tableau, Looker, or Windsor have become the bottleneck, we move you off without losing the reports people rely on.
IN PRACTICE
How this shows up in real engagements
WHAT AN ENGAGEMENT LOOKS LIKE
A shape we have used many times
Phase 1
Discover
Two weeks to map sources, users, and the three or four questions the platform must answer well.
Phase 2
Build
Production from week one. Weekly checkpoints with the team who will actually use the thing.
Phase 3
Operate
We stay on to tune, extend, and hand off when it is ready to live inside your team.
ENGAGEMENT MODELS
How we structure the work
Specific numbers come from an intro conversation. The shapes below cover most of what we do.
Scoped build
Fixed-fee for a well-defined platform (one warehouse, one primary dashboard surface, defined integrations).
Retainer
Monthly engagement for teams that want us in the loop as the platform evolves with the business.
