We believe in a future where scattered data silos dissolve through connection.

So that's what we built.

Our Story

We are engineers who believe in data sovereignty.

Every organization says data is its most valuable asset. So why does it still feel like a liability? For decades, the default strategy has been consolidation. Pull data out of every system. Transform it into a single "unified" shape. Load it into a central warehouse. Repeat. Every new system means a new pipeline. Every schema change means rewiring everything. Every business question that does not fit the model becomes a fire drill.

The irony is hard to miss.

The more effort we put into centralizing data, the less flexible it becomes. Raw information loses context. Models harden. Teams spend more time maintaining pipelines than learning from the data itself. Even small changes, such as adding a field, evolving a definition, or asking a new question, cascade across every downstream dependency. It is slow. It is fragile. It is expensive. And everyone knows it.

This is why we started Metaform.

We begin with a different assumption. Your data does not need to be moved to be useful. It needs to be connected. Metaform is a self-hosted data fabric that provides low-latency access to your data directly at the source, wherever it already lives.

Your data stays in place. Your systems remain independent. And through a single query and access layer, your information becomes available as if it were unified, without being centralized.

Metaform is built in Virginia.
