Rill, founded in 2020 by engineers from Metamarkets, builds an opinionated business-intelligence dashboarding stack designed for high performance and simplicity. Its core product bundles an embedded in-memory OLAP engine—DuckDB in Rill Developer and Apache Druid in Rill Cloud—to pre-process and serve key data faster than querying source warehouses like Snowflake, Databricks, or BigQuery. Rill's UI minimizes design choices and auto-generates dashboards from analyst-defined metrics so analysts can focus on data rather than visual design. The company offers a commercial SaaS product (Rill Cloud) and an open-source Rill Developer to help developers pull and shape data into metrics. Rill has been commercially available for over a year, reports about a dozen enterprise customers and thousands of users, and says revenue is approaching $5 million. The team is fully remote with 24 employees and draws on the founders' experience building Apache Druid at Metamarkets and Snap.
