Ducks That Lead the Way
“Product velocity is a hallmark of any hypercompetitor. MotherDuck & Omni ship product with incredible speed, and that’s why we trust them to move with us.”
Kristov Paulus
Founder, Chief Investment Officer
“We used to do analytics in a MySQL database with all of our daily device, telemetry, and image processing data. There was no way to scale that further using MySQL. With MotherDuck, we’re finally starting to find patterns in our data to help customers grow produce more effectively.”
Rob Teeuwen
Data Scientist
“Our data pipelines used to take eight hours. Now they’re taking eight minutes, and I see a world where they take eight seconds. This is why we made the big bet on DuckDB and MotherDuck. It’s only possible with DuckDB and MotherDuck.”
Jim O'Neill
Co-founder and CTO
“MotherDuck’s innovative approach to managing data and providing easy-to-use tooling has allowed us to expand our application use cases (e.g., getting data into the client's browser) and offer more value to our customers.”
