    • About us:
    Imagine if you could have all your favorite data tools as a single platform that's incredibly easy to use? 

    Data is one of the most fragmented industries, with over 500 vendors in 15+ categories. The analogy we use is that data vendors are selling car parts. Imagine walking into a Honda dealership, and instead of selling you a Civic, they sold you an engine, and you had to build your own car.

    It turns out that small and medium Businesses  don't care about buying and integrating multiple vendors. They want a complete platform (car) that works out of the box, that's exactly what we have created at 5X.

    Companies use 5X for 3 reasons:
    1) Build a data platform from scratch, or fill in missing pieces on your existing platform.
    2) Decrease the total cost of ownership by up to 50%.
    3) Use our full stack data consultancy for support on data strategy, analytics, data engineering, cost optimization or AI/ML.

    5X was founded in 2020 with presence in the USA, Singapore, UK and India. Our global team is 70+ people strong and rapidly growing.
