Our take
Dozens of billion-dollar companies have emerged with a shared focus on easing the burden on engineering teams constantly battling to guarantee reliability in their products. For example, New Relic revolutionised application observability. In the same way, Monte Carlo is tackling data observability.
The service pulls information from metadata log metrics to help teams understand their data health, and if something breaks, the product will send proactive notifications. The product is an off-the-shelf SaaS offering that customers can integrate and customise over time.
The company has won some major clients including big tech companies like Affirm and Intuit, but also JetBlue, PepsiCo, CNN, The New York Times, Asics, Rivian and others from many sectors. Its goal is to help companies reduce data downtime and the time data engineers must spend on tedious data quality tasks.
'Data Observability’ became a point of furore in venture capital in 2022. For example, in the span of one week, just three companies raised more than $400 million between them. Staying at the forefront of this industry is an interesting challenge for Monte Carlo, and it met it in 2024 with product enhancements that include new GenAI capabilities for its platform.
