About Data Novera

A Small Company With a Clear Point of View

Data Novera is an independent data and AI practice. We help growing businesses make better use of their data and find practical places for AI.

Data Novera started with a simple idea: many businesses have more data than they know what to do with, while AI is creating new opportunities to use that data.

With more than 20 years working in software, data engineering, cloud platforms, and data architecture, I wanted to create a place where I could explore practical ways to connect data and AI to real business problems.

Data Novera is small on purpose. You work directly with the people doing the architecture and the engineering. We start with your problem, look honestly at your data, and recommend only what makes sense for where you are today.

How We Work

What we try to do on every project

Start with the problem

Not the tool, and not the trend. What's actually getting in the way?

Be honest about the data

If the data isn't ready for something, we'll say so, and explain what would help.

Explain things plainly

You should understand what we're recommending and why, without a glossary.

Build what lasts

Small steps that hold up, rather than big projects that need rescuing later.
