Company
Hightouch
Composable CDP and AI Decisioning platform
We build Hightouch, a platform that lets marketing teams activate their data warehouse directly to create personalized 1:1 customer experiences. Instead of building custom integrations or using outdated CDPs, our product connects data warehouses to marketing tools and AI agents for decisioning, simplifying data activation and improving precision.
We are based in San Francisco, CA, and the company remains headquartered here after YC.
San Francisco is where our team and early customers are. The market for our product lives here, so staying local lets us iterate quickly based on customer feedback and build relationships.
