What is DataTip?

DataTip is an interface designed to be the fastest & least painful way to your access your critical datapoints.

Mobile-first and optimized for the instant access, DataTip will change the way you remember, store & retrieve information.

How can DataTip make me awesome?

Technology is for efficiency: that datapoint is on the tip of my tongue has a complete new interpretation in our instant information age.


There are so many apps to store information: Evernote, Contacts or event notepads - and advanced dashboards systems: Tableau, Data Studio - but many times, we just need quick, immediate access to some information and we wish there was one way to get to it, at speed of light. We don't need all the details, just the major datapoint.

Too lazy to look that up, never again. By creating a habit of logging your information on DataTip and in just seconds pulling out your phone to access it, can really change your perspective of what valuable data is.
At work meetings. Change your company's future. In a heated discussion, we will not stop to validate a critical metric that could change the decision.

Our Mission

We're on a mission to create the fastest way to access your critical datapoints.
