Our take

Data is the lifeblood of modern business, and managers need absolute faith in their information to be able to make critical business decisions. But the volume of data that companies handle is far too great for manual data quality teams to inspect, and bad data can easily leak through, damaging operations. Lightup exists to solve this problem, bringing an end to data chaos with a real-time data quality monitoring platform that monitors and alerts user to unexpected drifts in metrics and product data.

Lightup is a standout product in the data quality market in that its solution requires no coding to implement, meaning that developer teams don't need to take on additional programming responsibilities. Its use of AI means that over time its platform learns what a customer's normal looks like, meaning that it requires very little oversight to ensure that it is providing trustworthy data to decision makers.

Lightup is continuing to improve its product offering by forging links with companies that can improve its data systems, such as its partnership with PagerDuty. It is also onboarding new talent to grow its platform, particularly in its engineering and marketing teams.
