Chicago Data Solutions helps growth-stage startups unify their siloed data stacks so leadership can make decisions in real time, not after a 3-day reporting cycle.
If you're dealing with any of these, we can help
Customer data in Stripe, usage in Segment, support in Intercom. No single source of truth to make decisions from.
Your team wastes hours each week pulling data from multiple tools into spreadsheets just to answer basic business questions
"What's our customer LTV by cohort?" shouldn't take 3 days and a SQL-fluent analyst to answer
You need data infrastructure yesterday, but hiring a data engineer, analyst, and BI lead costs $400K+ in salary alone
We build the infrastructure you need at a fraction of the cost of full-time hires
We connect your fragmented sources (CRM, payments, product analytics, support) into a unified data warehouse. One source of truth, automated daily.
Dashboards and reports that answer your key questions without a data analyst in the loop. Your entire team can make decisions in real-time.
Not sure where to start? We audit your current tools, identify the gaps, and give you a clear roadmap before you spend a dollar on infrastructure.
From first call to working infrastructure in 4-5 weeks
We learn your stack, your pain points, and what decisions you're trying to make faster. No prep needed on your end.
You get a fixed-scope SOW with clear deliverables, timeline, and price. No ambiguity, no hourly billing surprises.
We build, test, and document everything. You get working infrastructure and a team that can maintain it without us.
Get the expertise of a full data team for a fraction of the cost
We've solved your problem before. No ramp time, no wrong turns. Most startups see their first unified dashboard within 3-4 weeks.
A senior data engineer costs $160K. Add an analyst and a BI engineer? You're at $400K+ in salary alone. Our engagements start at a fraction of that.
We design for Series B and beyond. When you do hire that data team, they'll inherit infrastructure that actually works, not a mess to unwind.
Choose the model that fits your needs
Fixed scope, fixed price. Ideal for initial stack buildouts, warehouse migrations, or dashboard builds. Most common starting point.
Ongoing infrastructure support, new pipeline development, and ad hoc analysis. For companies that need a fractional data team on call.
Architecture reviews, vendor selection, and data team interviews. For founders who want expert eyes before making a hire or a tool decision.
Book a free 30-minute call. We'll look at your current stack, identify the biggest bottleneck, and tell you exactly what it would take to fix it. No pitch deck. No commitment.
