It's also an interesting business model. Core platform tech and then consultancy.
A LOT of hand-cranking integrations and massaging data, presumably that's where they make most of their money - billing hours to agencies with deep pockets.
- FLUX-YOU 10y agoIt can't be that easy. Not for a million a month. Even the most bass-ackwards database designs can be reverse engineered by bright people in a day or two (we know Palantir can attract these people) especially if they have some scars dealing with dumb database design. And it's probably not likely that the person who built that database and the program that uses it went to great lengths to obfuscate anything. I'll even go a step further and say that most data sources are probably really simple programs. Throw in any kind of documentation as a bonus and the learning curve just goes down. What the hell could they be charging that much for?
