Lightup Data is a Mountain View-based enterprise data observability company that lets organizations monitor data quality at scale without moving their data. Its no-code platform pushes computation down into existing warehouses and lakehouses like Snowflake and Databricks, using AI-powered anomaly detection to catch data drift, outages, and discrepancies before they reach dashboards or AI models. Founded in 2019 and backed by Andreessen Horowitz, Lightup serves enterprises including AMD, Skechers, and KFC.
