Your data team
without the headcount
Your data stack without the headaches
Apiary is a managed data platform that connects your systems and models your data. We handle the infrastructure so you don't have to. Clean metrics in weeks, not months.
See how it works ↓Sound familiar?
Your data lives in tools that don't talk to each other.
Your CRM says one thing. Your accounting software says another. Your marketing platform? Who knows.
Building a report takes a week. Explaining why numbers don't match takes longer.
Every "quick question" turns into a scavenger hunt across five systems and twelve spreadsheets.
You're making important decisions on gut feelings and stale data.
The answers exist somewhere in your data. Getting to them just takes too long or feels impossible.
You know you need better visibility. But the solutions cost more than your runway.
Enterprise platforms demand six-figure investments and months of implementation. Hiring a data team means $150K+ per person. Neither makes sense right now.
It doesn't have to be this hard.
How do you solve this today?
| Apiary | Hire In-House | Enterprise Tools | Spreadsheets | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Time to value | 4 weeks | 6-12 months | 6-12 months | Never improves |
| Annual cost | $$ | $$$$ | $$$$ | $ (hidden costs) |
| Expertise required | None | High | High | Medium |
| Ongoing maintenance | Included | On you | On you | On you |
| Scales with growth | Yes | Eventually | Yes | No |
| Vendor lock-in | None | N/A | Often | N/A |
Every option has tradeoffs. We built Apiary for companies who need serious data infrastructure without six-figure contracts or year-long rollouts.

Here's what's in your hands after working with us.
All your data sources connected

Something break? Have a question? We're on it. No ticket queues, no waiting weeks for someone to look at it.
From signed contract to first value in 4 weeks.
Discovery
You tell us about your business and the metrics that matter most. We dig into your data sources before we even meet.
Alignment
We meet to lock in the plan. What are we building? What does success look like? We leave with a shared document and clear next steps.
Build
We connect your systems and model your data. You'll have visibility into progress along the way.
Deliver + Iterate
Your first metrics are live. We review together, then keep building based on what your business needs next.
What "better data" actually looks like.
When Your Billing Platform's Reports Are Costing You Investor Trust
A fast-growing DTC fitness brand heading into a funding round discovered their billing platform was inflating subscriber counts. Failed payments were being counted as active members for months. With an investor meeting approaching, they needed accurate metrics fast. Apiary built a clean data model that corrected membership counts and restored investor confidence. It's now their system of record for cohort analysis and LTV modeling.
"We were about to present inflated numbers to investors. Apiary gave us accurate, automated metrics in time for the investor meeting."Read the full story →

Questions you're probably asking.
Every Platform subscription includes monthly hours with our team. They can help with data modeling, dashboard questions, troubleshooting, or anything else you need. Think of it as having a data team on retainer without the full-time hire.
Anything data-related. Common uses include building or adjusting data models, dashboard and report questions, troubleshooting data issues, advice on metrics and KPIs, and training your team on the platform.
No. Hours reset each month. If you consistently need more than your plan includes, you can purchase additional hours at $125/hour or move to a higher tier.
For Platform tiers, your data stack is typically running within a week of kickoff. What you build from there depends on how you use your Dedicated Data Team hours.
Yes. Month-to-month contracts are standard. Annual contracts save you two months, but there's no penalty for going monthly. And if you leave, your data and models come with you.
Upgrade anytime. We'll prorate the difference. And if you ever outgrow Apiary entirely, everything you've built is yours to take. No lock-in.
The key difference: every Apiary Platform plan includes Dedicated Data Team hours. Other platforms only include analyst time at premium tiers, or don't include it at all. With Apiary, you get a team, not just a tool.
Faster sync frequency is available. Reach out and we'll discuss options and pricing.
You have two options: use our BI offering (Viewer seats at $50/month, Editor seats at $100/month), or bring your own BI tool. We support most major BI platforms, so you can connect whichever tool works best for your team.
Basically anything. CRMs like Salesforce or HubSpot. Accounting software like QuickBooks, Xero, or NetSuite. Marketing platforms like Meta, Google, or Klaviyo. Databases, APIs, even spreadsheets. If it has an export or an API, we can connect it.
Nope. That's the point. We handle the infrastructure, integration, and maintenance. You just need people who want to use the insights.
Yes. All data is encrypted in transit and at rest. We follow SOC 2 practices and can work within your security requirements.
