Our Story

During their many years of working at exchanges and end-user firms, DataBP’s principals saw first-hand the challenges holding back the market data industry. Much of this was because there were no tools on the market designed to handle the complex commercial models and workflows that data businesses require. In 2013, DataBP was founded to make these business processes as easy as online shopping. Since then DataBP’s growing set of products and solutions have steadily changed the way businesses approach data sales and operations, freeing up their teams to focus on customer relationships and creativity.

We understand that our customers often operate inside complex institutions which may limit their options with new technology. Our customizable, modular platform can integrate with any existing system or software you need to keep, providing a smooth transition to a new chapter of efficiency, reliability, and growth. Even after initial set up, we’ll continue to provide your team with the support needed to scale your business and maximize the value of your data.
