Chartio helps businesses analyze and track their critical data. Over the past decade, the Business Intelligence industry has failed to deliver affordable and easy-to-use solutions. Instead, most vendors sell bulky on-premise products that are nearly impossible to understand, take ages to deploy and in many cases, fail to deliver value. It's time for a change.

When we founded Chartio, we set forth to make analytics intuitive and not a massive and budget-breaking headache. We're re-imagining business analytics from the ground-up and offer every enterprise a beautiful, simple-to-use and powerful platform to understand their critical data.

Meet the Team

Dave Fowler's mom taught him to program when he was 11 and he's been spending his hours in front of the terminal ever since. In school he studied Physics, two other undergrads and finished with a masters degree in Electrical Engineering.

During and after school Dave did 2 years at IBM where he worked on the processor for the Xbox 360 and filed 10 patents. Two years ago he moved to the bay area to pursue a startup and he is happy that fewer people bug him about finding some work-life balance.

Dave was listed in Forbes' 30 under 30 in Technology for 2011.

Justin Davis received his BS in computer and electrical engineering from Worcester Polytechnic University. He's since done some pretty cool things in both, from working on power plants with GE to stopping DDoS attacks at Arbor Networks in Michigan.

Before Chartio, he was a Senior Software Engineer at Splunk, a great analytics company that focuses on unstructured data (from logs). In his free time, Justin likes to make MySQL asynchronous (and other geeky things) and chill with friends.

Michael Shiplet, a.k.a., walrus, recently joined us from the world of networking security. Before Chartio, he built mighty, scalable systems for Arbor Networks in Michigan and wrangled routing code for Cisco. Michael has spent his entire career writing client and server-side networking code.

Since joining, he has been overjoyed to find not one, but two(!) espresso stands where "all shots are double ristrettos."

Nate Agrin is our lead User Interface developer. He worked at Twitter as part of the Web Team, building their photo product and improving their search interface.

Prior to Twitter, he helped develop Splunk's UI framework. When he's not in the Chartio office, you can probably find Nate surfing, snowboarding, or hiking—either stateside or somewhere in New Zealand.
