Chalk

Chalk (11 employees) is building machine learning infrastructure to answer the world’s hardest questions. We make it easy for machine learning teams to build high-performance pipelines that deliver data to models at the right time. We orchestrate infrastructure and automatically track data lineage so developers can work confidently and focus on their unique products and insights. We’re lucky to have an all-star founding team. Elliot (https://www.linkedin.com/in/elliotmarx/) started his career at Affirm where he built the policy and resolver framework (the inspiration for Chalk). He then started Haven Money which Credit Karma acquired to power its banking products. Andy (https://www.linkedin.com/in/amoreland/) got his start at Palantir working on large government data infrastructure projects before co-founding Haven with Elliot. And Marc (https://www.linkedin.com/in/marcff/ - our CEO) spent many years at Google where he helped to launch the first version of Google Wallet. He went on to start Index which Stripe acquired as its in-store payment solution – it’s now called Stripe Terminal. Across their experiences, they have seen and tackled the challenge of building the data infrastructure that's required to make high quality credit, risk and fraud decisions. That led Marc, Elliot and Andy to Chalk — data infrastructure for machine learning with a best-in-class developer experience.
