In their words

Whaly helps data teams save time on maintenance and analysis building while making business users more autonomous on the analysis they want to improve their decision making. We do this by providing a self service data platform where both data and business teams can work together. We understood that most data teams were ending up being a bottleneck for the rest of the company and needed to give more autonomy to business teams to back their decisions with data. Emilien, Florian and Pierre were the minds behind the Data advertising platforms of the major media and e-commerce companies in France in their earlier position as Product Manager and head of Customer Success, giving them an edge on how to execute successfully a data project.
