Estuary, the leading right-time data platform, has raised a $17 million Series A round, led by M13, joined by FirstMark and Operator Partners. The funding will support the acceleration of Estuary’s vision to make enterprise data movement easy, providing reliable, cost-preparable, and AI-enabled pipelines. Conventional data integration technologies tend to make enterprises compromise between batch pipes, which impart several hours of latency, and streams, which are brittle and costly. Estuary solves this problem by combining real-time and batch data movement in a single platform, enabling organizations to capture, transform, and sync data in real-time across their entire stack. This method allows businesses to save 40–60% on costs, compress time-to-market for streaming solutions, and have granular control over latency and deployment choices, whether SaaS, private plane, or Bring Your Own Cloud (BYOC).

David Yaffe, Estuary co-founder and CEO, underscored the company’s focus on removing the tradeoffs that come with conventional data integration: “Data integration has traditionally meant stringing together several vendors and making painful compromises. We created Estuary to remove those tradeoffs. By bringing batch and streaming under one roof, and allowing customers to dial latency anywhere from sub-second to scheduled, we provide enterprises with reliable pipelines driving analytics, operations, and AI at lower expense.” The Series A round will help Estuary grow its engineering, product, and go-to-market teams, further growing its enterprise roadmap and international presence. Customers in industries ranging from finance and healthcare to logistics and SaaS are already using Estuary to transform their data infrastructure and enable AI workloads.
