Meet the Founders
Daniel and Anu founded Afterdata after seeing how often data leaders struggled to show their worth. With years of experience on both the business and technical sides of data, they knew the problem wasn’t the data itself. It was the story. That’s why Afterdata exists: to give Chief Data Officers the toolkit to defend their data, showcase its value, and change the way organizations make decisions.

The Inspiration Behind Afterdata
We set out to solve a problem we saw every day: knowledge workers drowning in data, but struggling to find what they need and share what they know.
Our solution makes data discovery simple, connected, and collaborative. We’ve built intuitive, interactive ways to explore existing datasets, while linking discovery with knowledge sharing—so teams build a shared context and common vocabulary.
At our core, we believe data only has value when people can understand it. That’s why we help organizations not just manage their data, but become truly data-literate.
