Databricks, a prominent data and AI company, has officially announced its acquisition of Einblick, an AI-focused data platform renowned for providing data teams with an agile workflow for data exploration, predictive modeling, and deploying data applications. Einblick’s unique capabilities, including translating natural language questions into actionable insights, align closely with Databricks’ mission of democratizing data intelligence and fostering the development of next-generation data and AI applications.
Emanuel Zgraggen, CEO and co-founder of Einblick, expressed enthusiasm about the acquisition, stating, “Today marks a significant milestone as we join forces with Databricks to further our mission.” He emphasized Einblick’s commitment to empowering companies to leverage data more effectively and looked forward to collaborating with Databricks.
Ali Ghodsi, CEO and co-founder of Databricks, welcomed Einblick’s team, highlighting their shared vision of deeply leveraging data and AI for organizational success. He expressed excitement about integrating Einblick’s innovative AI-native approach directly into the Databricks platform, thereby empowering organizations to democratize data intelligence with quality, speed, and agility.
Einblick, founded by researchers from Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and Brown University, has spent the past four years pioneering AI-native collaboration platforms that enable users to solve complex data problems with just one sentence. The acquisition by Databricks will allow Einblick’s ideas to be more effectively extended through deep integration with Databricks’ underlying data catalogue.
This acquisition is part of Databricks’ strategic expansion efforts, which include previous acquisitions such as Arcion, MosaicML, Rubicon, and Okera. These acquisitions align with Databricks’ overarching vision of making large-scale model training more accessible to enterprises of all sizes, enabling them to create AI applications that better understand their data.
Databricks, headquartered in San Francisco, serves over 10,000 organizations worldwide, including prominent names like Comcast and Condé Nast.
