Founded by Bobby Pinero and Ben McRedmond in 2021, Equals empowers business users to connect live data from databases and other sources directly into an intuitive Excel-style spreadsheet interface. The company was founded with the goal of bridging the gap between simple and complex data platforms, and helping startups make better decisions with their data. Equals used this deck to raise a $5.5M seed round in early 2022, backed by notable VCs and Angels like Jack Altman, Worklife and Craft Ventures. The company originally planned to raise only $4M at first, but ended up expanding the round to $6M. Just five months later, Equals raised a $16M Series A led by A16Z.
