Seattle-based startup Gable, which helps developers build and manage high-quality data assets, has secured $20 million in a Series A round led by Crane Venture Partners and supported by Ukrainian fund Roosh Ventures, as AIN was told by the fund.

About Gable

  • Gable, a Seattle-based startup founded in 2023 by Chad Sanderson and Adrian Kreuziger, develops a B2B data infrastructure that provides a collaboration platform to author and enforce data contracts. 

  • ‘Data contracts’, refer to API-based agreements between the software engineers who own upstream data sources and data engineers/analysts that consume data to build machine learning models and analytics. These agreements are defined, enforced, and discovered through the Gable platform.

  • According to the company, early adopters have already experienced significant improvements, with incident resolution times improving by up to 70% and development cycles for data-driven features accelerating by nearly 50%.

“We're enabling a fundamental shift in how organizations handle data quality and governance through Data DevOps. By moving data quality controls upstream to the point of data creation, we're eliminating the costly cycle of fixing broken pipelines, resolving inconsistencies, and debugging downstream issues,” says Chad Sanderson, CEO and co-founder of Gable.
