Company mission

To save engineering time and increase trust by letting data teams know when things break, what went wrong, and how to fix it — before an executive messages them about a broken dashboard.

Our take

The amount of data that companies process - and the number of tools available to handle it - has increased exponentially in recent years. While platforms exist to monitor the performance of data software, not much exists to monitor the data itself. This leads to unreliability in business critical applications, that requires time-consuming and expensive QA.

Metaplane targets these quality issues by using anomaly detection models to find issues in a customer's data stack in real time. This allows data teams to swiftly locate and triage issues, before erroneous data hits a dashboard. While there is a growing roster of competitors entering the observability space, Metaplane seeks to stand out with its focus on product data, where its proprietary algorithms outshine Meta's Prophet library that is used by most competitors.

Metaplane has amassed a solid customer base of over 140 companies including Imperfect Foods, Appcues and Reforge. Its most recent investment is going towards the development of an AI-powered observability platform. In the longer term, it will move into other business areas beyond product.
