What is Funnel?
Founded in Stockholm in 2013, Funnel has established itself as a critical tool for marketers seeking to automate their data collection processes. The platform integrates with over 500 data sources, including major marketing and sales platforms like LinkedIn, Mailchimp, Salesforce, and Shopify. Funnel's core functionality involves automatically cleaning, mapping, and grouping this disparate data, making it 'business ready' for analysis and reporting in popular business intelligence tools such as Tableau, Looker, Microsoft Power BI, and Qlik. This capability is particularly valuable in an era where major technology platforms are vying for companies' marketing budgets, and accurate, consolidated data is paramount for effective campaign management and strategic decision-making.
