Portable is a New York-based ELT platform that builds data connectors on-demand, specializing in the long tail of niche business applications that larger integration vendors ignore. Founded in 2020 by Ethan Aaron, it lets data teams pull data from thousands of sources into warehouses like Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift, and PostgreSQL with no code, flat predictable pricing regardless of data volume, and hands-on custom connector development delivered in hours or days.
Artie is a San Francisco-based, fully managed real-time data streaming platform that uses change data capture (CDC) and log-based replication to move production data across databases, warehouses, search systems, and vector stores with sub-minute latency and zero pipeline maintenance. Founded in 2023 by Jacqueline Cheong and Robin Tang and backed by Y Combinator, Artie pitches streaming-first data movement as the default for AI-era systems, replacing brittle batch ETL and self-managed Kafka.
