Company mission

To make data within organizations more accessible.

Our take

Organisations are more data-driven than ever before, and making use of this data has shifted from the realm of specialised data analysts to pretty much everyone. But the vast amount of information stored by modern companies can be almost impossible to navigate, validate or make use of, especially when data protection regulations are taken into account. Stemma is tackling the mammoth job of cataloguing and indexing this information to ensure that a company's data can be trusted by its users.

Built on top of the open-source Amundsen data indexing platform (used by Lyft), Stemma goes a step further by automatically populating the indexes with information as they are added to the catalog. The only real alternative to this has been to rely on data teams to manually enter this metadata, an expensive and almost impossible task given how much information modern businesses accumulate. This solution to data management has given Stemma strong initial traction, picking up clients like Flexport, iRobot and Tempo.

Stemma has closed a seed funding round led by Sequoia which allowed it to publically launch its product. It is focusing on increasing its talent pool and further developing its offering by increasing its integrations with new data systems such as Snowflake and BigQuery, and by making enhancements to its user interface.
