We believe in the power of being in the know.
Our mission is to build technology that tackles today’s proliferation of data. To offer products that analyse, contextualise and bring meaning to any kind of information.
We want our customers to spend less time collecting and searching data, and more time on learning, discovering and making better-informed decisions. We want you to know more, faster.
Our story.
Silobreaker was founded in 2005 on a vision that as data volumes grow exponentially, intelligence won’t come from access to data but from sense-making technology that cuts through the noise and supports the human analysis required to interpret and understand the world around us.
We are a founder-led, non-VC funded company. We operate out of London, where we are headquartered, and Stockholm, where our engineering team is located. Together we develop and provide sophisticated and powerful intelligence products that are being used by customers in the corporate, government, military and financial services sectors worldwide.
The founders.
Silobreaker’s leadership team combines expertise from working with and developing intelligence solutions.
