The Dataiku Story

Dataiku’s story begins in 2013. The Dataiku founders started out on the principle that in order to succeed in the world’s rapidly evolving ecosystem, companies — no matter what their industry or size — must use data to continuously innovate.

Dataiku’s founding principal and comprehensive solution struck a chord with businesses around the world, resulting in rapid growth since its founding. Hundreds of companies use Dataiku to underpin their essential business operations and ensure they stay relevant in a changing world, including models driving fraud detection, customer churn prevention, predictive maintenance, supply chain optimization, and much more.

In December 2018, Dataiku announced a $101 million Series C funding round led by ICONIQ Capital. This came hot on the heels of the release of Dataiku 5 in September 2018.

In September 2019, the company was named to the Forbes Cloud 100, the definitive ranking of the top 100 private cloud companies in the world. 

In December 2019, just one day after the release of Dataiku 6, Dataiku announced that CapitalG — the late-stage growth venture capital fund financed by Alphabet Inc. — joined the company as an investor and that Dataiku had achieved unicorn status, valued at $1.4 billion. 

In August 2020, Dataiku announced a $100 million Series D funding round led by Stripes with Tiger Global Management joining the round as investors; existing investors Battery Ventures, CapitalG, Dawn Capital, FirstMark Capital, and ICONIQ also increased their investment in the company.

With this round of funding, Dataiku continues to grow, employing more than 400 people offices in New York, Paris, London, Munich, Sydney, and Singapore. 

Dataiku Company Values

Our company values are very important to us because they reflect not only the way that we act toward each other within the confines of our offices, but also the way we interact with our customers and the way our customers experience our product.

Openness

We love having a lot of different people from a variety of backgrounds helping to build, support, and spread the word about Dataiku.

Empowering People

We have each other’s backs at the Dataiku offices and trust people to own what they’re working on. And when it comes to data teams, we feel the same.

Getting Technical

We’re a pretty nerdy group (and proud of it). So in Dataiku, we let coders do their thing and not feel inhibited by a tool.

Fun

At the same time, we also like to keep it light. We enjoy what we do, and we want to make sure that our customers do too.
