It’s only been a few months since Tidemark, a bold Andreessen Horowitz-backed business analytics platform, emerged from its beta cocoon. But today, the fledgling company is introducing a new set of tools, aimed at helping businesses visualize their data in real time. “Business reporting is broken, stagnated decades ago, built upon stacks of dense, complex, and dated reports and dashboards that few people ever read,“ explains Founder and CEO Christian Gheorghe.

"Data is nothing without context. " The new feature--called Storylines--supplies visual context with a dynamic mobile interface. Gheorghe’s business is based on a simple insight--that the so-called “consumerization of technology” is having a profound impact on enterprise, thanks to the ubiquity of mobile devices. “You used to go home and expect to check your email in Outlook,” he says. “Now you come to work and expect to see applications that are as simple as Facebook or LinkedIn.” A taste of a fully real-time Tidemark Storyline: 8 Of The Year's Most Creative Infographics. Fancy flowcharts! Colorful maps! A running cheetah made see-through!
