The Why Behind Gestalt: Making Data Fair

Stephanie, our CEO and cofounder, shares the story behind why Gestalt exists. Building a data warehouse is tough, hiring the right people is even tougher, and trying to do it all while running a financial institution is nearly impossible. So why should every bank, credit union, and specialty finance company 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 deserves access to their own data, and we are here to make it fair.

Stephanie’s Why Behind Gestalt Highlights:

• Building and staffing a data warehouse is costly and complex

• Reinventing the wheel distracts institutions from their core mission

• Data access should be standard, like credit bureaus or accounting systems

• Gestalt exists to make data access fair for every financial institution
