Our Why: Making Data Fair

Stephanie, our CEO and cofounder, shares the reason Gestalt exists. Building a data warehouse is hard, finding the people to do it is harder, and running a financial institution while trying to build one is nearly impossible. So why should every bank, credit union, and specialty finance shop have to spend a fortune reinventing the wheel? We don’t build our own credit bureaus or accounting systems, and we believe data should be no different. Our why is simple: every financial institution, big or small, deserves access to their own data, and we’re here to make it fair.

Stephanie’s Our Why Highlights:
  • Building and staffing a data warehouse is complex, costly, and distracting

  • Institutions should not have to reinvent the wheel to manage their data

  • Data access should be as standard as credit bureaus or accounting systems

  • Gestalt’s mission is to make data access fair for every financial institution
