What we do
We make products for human-driven analysis of real-world data
We're focused on creating the world's best user experience for working with data, one that empowers people to ask and answer complex questions without requiring them to master querying languages, statistical modeling, or the command line.
To achieve this, we build platforms for integrating, managing, and securing data on top of which we layer applications for fully interactive human-driven, machine-assisted analysis.
Our PlatformsWe build our company around mission-driven engineering
We're engineers, not academics.
At our offices around the world, we've assembled a team that combines practical expertise in distributed systems infrastructure, big data processing, user experience design, and data science. Whatever their role, each Palantirian combines an uncompromising engineering mindset with an unwavering focus on executing in service of the mission.
Our PeopleWe meet the problems where they live
Our customers have data and a deep understanding of the problems they face. We have proven products and an engineering mindset.
We send our engineers into the field to work directly with our customers—deploying our products, integrating their data, optimizing their workflows, and producing operational results in weeks, not years. By establishing a true partnership, we help customers get the most out of our products and engineering expertise.
