Presentation

The Art of Data Aggregation
This presentation is for developers and engineers who build applications on top of data gathered from multiple sources. The objective of our data aggregation platform is to model (and report) a user’s complete financial life.

We share the three key architectural principles that have made this platform possible:

• Owning the aggregated data to improve quality
• Synthesizing data and developing machine learning intelligence to obtain unique insights
• Developing APIs that hide data complexities to drive efficient UI development
