We are building Artie, a real-time data streaming solution focused on databases and data warehouses. Typical ETL solutions leverage batched processes or schedulers (DAGs, Airflow), which cannot achieve real time data syncs. We leverage change data capture (CDC) and stream processing to perform data transfers in a more efficient way, which enables sub-minute latency.
We're growing fast - we launched our cloud product a year ago and have surpassed 1M ARR. We're backed by Pathlight Ventures, General Catalyst and other world class investors like Benn Stancil (Mode), Lenny Rachitsky (Lenny's NewsLetter), and others.
