Why DataSnipper?

The best commercial opportunities don't come around every day. Selling technology that's transforming an entire industry is one of them.

We believe trust is essential to how society works. Every day, we rely on information that's been independently verified, from financial statements to the products we buy, to the sustainability claims companies make. Behind that trust are audit and finance professionals who examine evidence, verify information and hold organizations accountable.

At DataSnipper, we build AI solutions that empower those professionals to make those judgements. With Alwin by DataSnipper, our new agentic platform, AI agents now take on end-to-end audit and finance procedures, while every conclusion stays traceable to its source. That frees professionals to focus on the judgment and expertise that make their work so important.

We're trusted by Fortune 500 companies, government agencies and all Big Four audit firms. Today, more than 600,000 professionals across 3,000+ organizations in 175 countries rely on our platform, and in 2025 alone DataSnipper delivered more than $1.4 billion in productivity savings to its customers.

Backed by a $100 million Series B led by Index Ventures, at a $1 billion valuation, we've built a strong foundation for what's next. And as proud members of 1% for the Planet, we care about how we grow, not just how fast.

For our commercial teams, this is where things get exciting.

Alwin has just launched, demand is growing, and we're expanding into new markets and segments. With a product customers already rely on, there's a huge opportunity to make your mark.
