Self-Service Data Prep and Blend Built for Data Teams

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We built Enso to help data teams prepare and analyze data without the back-and-forth that slows them down. It turns complex, one-off data processing tasks into repeatable workflows that save users about 7 hours weekly. Our platform offers full configuration visibility, real-time updates, and smooth transitions between cloud and desktop environments, so both non-coders and developers can work in the same system.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We are based in Kraków, Poland, with a distributed remote team. After YC we will remain remote with key operations likely maintained here.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Our decision to build Enso from Kraków leverages local tech talent and a growing data community in Poland. Being remote lets us tap global talent while staying grounded where the founders live and work.
