The challenge: paving the way for rapid growth

In 2013, Kilo Health launched its first product with a team of just seven people. Today, 700+ employees take care of 30+ products with over 5 million customers worldwide. The number of data points has grown just as quickly. Therefore, Kilo Health needed a solution to support its rapid growth and its journey to become a fully data-driven company to serve stakeholders with intelligent and unbiased insights. 

The solution: user-friendly tools for easy scalability 

A customer since 2019, Kilo Health values Fivetran because of its simplicity and ability to scale with the company. With Fivetran, Kilo Health can easily set up and maintain new connectors as the business grows, without investing into additional resources.  And the growth has been amazing: from 2021 to 2023 alone, the number of Fivetran connectors Kilo Health is using increased from 130 to 220+, encompassing connectors of more than 20 types. The ability to add connectors quickly and efficiently allows Kilo Health to use the data as soon as it is available in the source, which is crucial in driving pivotal business decisions.

“Without Fivetran, creating and maintaining all these different connectors would require an extensive set-up,” says Dominykas Balčiūnas, Data Project Manager at Kilo Health. “With Fivetran, accessing crucial data is made seamless. Thus, we can fully concentrate on the value that the data brings.”

Through Fivetran, Kilo Health integrates internal data like product information, transactions, orders, subscribers, client data and app data with external data like payment and marketing data.  All data movement is automated through Fivetran into the data lake, providing a centralized view into the entire business.

“Some companies use a variety of tools to put data in their data warehouse or data lake,” says Dominykas Balčiūnas. “Fivetran is the foundation and an important layer of Kilo Health’s Data Stack. It significantly contributes to answering crucial business questions as fast as possible.”
