Company
Leada
Online enterprise training in data science and analytics
We built a data training program that companies use to onboard and train their employees on how to answer business questions using their existing BI tools, SQL, R, or Python. The product focuses on helping professionals become effective in their company's data environment rather than teaching generic data skills.
We live in Los Angeles and Berkeley, California. After YC, the company would be based in one of these locations depending on where the team converges and where customers are.
Our decision to base the company in California is because both founders live here, and our early users are local enterprises that benefit from close collaboration and iteration with us.
