This means anyone is able find and understand the data within their catalog.

Despite operating within an uncertain and somewhat crowded sector, Select Star has seen notable success, counting Pitney Bowes, Block|Square, AlphaSense, and Xometry among its customers. Looking forward, the company is focused on further investment in its R&D efforts and accelerated expansion.
