FriendlyData Announces Fetch – a Natural Language Search Interface for Enterprise Data

Mar 23, 2018 | News

SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA – March 27, 2018 — FriendlyData, an early stage enterprise data company that is working to fundamentally change the way people interact with data, today announced that it has launched a Natural Language Search Interface for enterprise data called Fetch. Fetch enables non-technical team members to access data quickly and easily, using their own language, without the need for expensive developers or database professionals.

“FriendlyData has addressed a huge need in the world of enterprise data by helping non-technical people access critical data in a secure, intuitive way,” said Alex Nenadavets, Lead Strategic Intelligence Analyst at Wargaming.net. “Individuals and teams that rely on timely, trustworthy data now have an amazing new tool at their disposal.”

Backed by 500 Startups, GWC Innovator Fund and angel investors, FriendlyData helps people make better decisions by helping them to easily and accurately utilize enterprise data in a simple, secure way. Organizations like Crunchbase and Wargaming.net rely on FriendlyData to enable non-technical staff to leverage data by providing a Natural Language Search Interface to relational databases, in order to bring important business data from those systems into a single view.

Most database and analytics platforms today are very complex, and take organizations a lot of time and resources to work within. FriendlyData solves this problem, and democratizes data across the entire enterprise by providing instant and secure access to internal data via a simple user interface. With FriendlyData, employees can complete complex analytical tasks in just a few seconds by asking enterprise databases a question, just like they would ask a fellow worker. FriendlyData translates plain English into an SQL request and generates data organizations need in an easy format. This ensures a Google-like search experience for anyone working with structured data.

“At FriendlyData we have reimagined the world of enterprise data, and we are working hard to fundamentally change the way people interact with their internal data,” stated FriendlyData CEO Michael Rumiancau. “By providing an easy to use platform, FriendlyData makes data accessible to all. Our solution saves organizations time and money, and makes teams smarter by bringing data to them in a secure, easy to use way.”

Michael Rumiancau launched FriendlyData in 2016 after realizing the opportunities enterprises miss out on every year because they have not democratized data within their organizations. Since inception, FriendlyData has worked vigorously to develop an Augmented Intelligence algorithm that provides Natural Language Search Interfaces to large databases. The average enterprise spends roughly $8 Million annually on database tools and professionals, just to access their own proprietary data. FriendlyData eliminates this by enabling anyone within the organization to be a database professional.

FriendlyData believes the future is complementarity between computers and humans, between users and data. FriendlyData wants to make data accessible for everyone so that every organization becomes data-driven.
