About DataFrame Labs

We're building institutional-grade quantitative analytics for financial institutions who need precision without the legacy overhead.

Our Mission

Why We Exist

Quantitative analytics shouldn't be locked behind seven-figure vendor contracts and eighteen-month implementation timelines. We started DataFrame Labs because we saw too many sophisticated financial institutions stuck between two bad options: expensive legacy platforms or building everything in-house from scratch.

Our mission is to democratize the kind of quantitative infrastructure that was previously only available to the largest banks and hedge funds. We're building a firm that combines rigorous academic methodology with the speed and agility of a modern technology company.

We believe in transparency over black boxes. In documentation over hand-waving. In delivering working code that integrates with your existing systems rather than forcing you onto yet another platform.
