CODE-FIRST DATA PIPELINES

Open, self-hosted
data layer for
teams that own their data.

Git-native transformations. Visual + code dual-mode. Real-time + batch unified. Temporal orchestration. Built-in observability. No vendor lock.

For teams avoiding Airflow chaos, Matillion lock-in, and closed-source tool costs.
THE PROBLEM

Enterprises trapped in closed-source ETL

Costly. Inflexible. Locked-in. Three vectors forcing a reckoning.

Cost spiral

Fivetran, Informatica, Matillion: per-row + per-connector pricing scales to $50k–$500k+ annually. Smaller spend = no support.

Data sovereignty risk

SaaS tools force data movement through third-party infrastructure. Compliance (SOC 2, HIPAA, GDPR, local residency) becomes vendor negotiation.

Vendor lock-in

Proprietary YAML, closed connectors, no audit trail, no way out. Switching costs (data migration, retraining) exceed 18 months of savings.

THE SOLUTION

Sensyze: ETL that serves the enterprise

Code-first. Self-hosted. Your data, your rules.

We solve this at the ETL level: open-source, self-hosted pipelines that meet compliance, stability, and sovereignty requirements without vendor lock-in or surprise scaling bills.

📝 Git-native

Code in repositories. Version control, peer review, testing, rollback. Infrastructure as code.

🔓 Self-hosted

Deploy on your infra. Data stays on-premise. Air-gappable. No third-party access.

⚡ Dual-mode

Visual canvas OR Python/SQL. Same pipeline. Engineers own complexity. Analysts see clarity.

🌊 Real-time + batch

CDC streams, scheduled jobs, one control plane. Temporal orchestration handles distribution.

👁️ Built-in obs

Logs, metrics, data lineage, alerts — no Datadog/New Relic required.

📖 BSL Licensed

Open source. Auditable. Community-driven. No surprise licensing changes.

POSITIONING

Three teams, three wins

For Data Engineers

✓ Write Python/SQL in Git, no YAML scaffolding

✓ Peer reviews + testing like prod code

✓ Temporal orchestration handles retries, recovery

✓ Stop fighting frameworks, focus on logic

vs Airflow: less ops, more vision

For Compliance/Security

✓ Data stays on-prem, no SaaS data movement

✓ Audit trail: all code in Git, all runs logged

✓ Deploy air-gapped, fully disconnected

✓ Open source = auditable, no hidden logic

vs Fivetran/Matillion: sovereignty, control

For Finance/Operations

✓ 10× cost reduction vs enterprise tools

✓ No per-row, per-connector surprise fees

✓ Single-tenant, no compute resource theft

✓ Exit plan: if you leave, code goes with you

vs closed-source: economics + escape hatch

Sensyze Code-First Data Pipelines — Company Vision and Market Opportunity

Sensyze is building the open-source, self-hosted data layer for enterprises that refuse to compromise on sovereignty or cost. The global data integration market exceeds $19 billion by 2028, yet organisations remain locked into proprietary SaaS platforms charging per-row fees with no exit strategy. Sensyze's vision is to replace that model with a code-first, Git-native pipeline platform that runs on your infrastructure, scales with your team, and costs a fraction of legacy tools — delivering 7x lower total cost of ownership over five years.
