San Francisco CA data transformation platform for Snowflake; raised $50M+; visual development environment for building and managing dbt-like SQL transformations.
About
Coalesce is a data transformation platform founded in 2020 and headquartered in San Francisco, California. The company was founded by Nick Freiling and Dave Abercrombie, data transformation veterans from the business intelligence and data warehousing industry, to build a visual development environment for Snowflake that gives data engineers the productivity of a GUI without sacrificing the code control and version management that SQL-based transformation requires. Coalesce is often described as a Snowflake-native visual alternative to dbt, providing the same SQL-in-the-warehouse transformation approach with a drag-and-drop interface rather than a command-line workflow.\n\nCoalesce raised $50 million in funding from investors including Snowflake Ventures, Index Ventures, and Databricks Ventures. Its platform generates native Snowflake SQL from the visual transformation graph, allowing data engineers to inspect and customize the generated SQL at any level of detail. Coalesce's column-level lineage tracking shows exactly how data flows from source columns through transformations to destination columns, providing audit-grade transparency into how data is derived that is difficult to achieve with raw dbt projects.\n\nCoalesce's integration with Snowflake goes deep: it supports Snowflake-specific features like dynamic tables, streams and tasks for incremental processing, and clustering keys natively in the visual interface, without requiring engineers to write Snowflake-specific configuration in YAML or Jinja. This deep Snowflake integration positions Coalesce as the preferred transformation tool for data teams heavily invested in the Snowflake ecosystem. The platform also integrates with dbt for teams that want to migrate existing dbt projects into Coalesce's visual environment gradually.

About
NetSuite is a San Mateo, California and Austin, Texas-based cloud enterprise resource planning (ERP) platform and business unit of Oracle Corporation (NYSE: ORCL) — serving over 40,000 customers in 219 countries and territories with cloud-native financial management, CRM, inventory, supply chain, human capital management, and e-commerce applications designed for small-to-midsize businesses and rapidly growing enterprises that need unified business management software from a single cloud platform. NetSuite was founded in 1998 as NetLedger (one of the world's first cloud-based ERP systems) and acquired by Oracle in 2016 for $9.3 billion. Oracle's platform integration — connecting NetSuite to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), Oracle Analytics Cloud, and Oracle's AI layer — enables NetSuite to leverage hyperscale compute, data warehousing, and generative AI capabilities that independent ERP vendors cannot build at equivalent cost. At SuiteWorld 2025, NetSuite unveiled NetSuite Next, featuring Ask Oracle — a natural language AI assistant enabling business users to search records, navigate workflows, analyze financial data, and trigger business actions across the entire NetSuite dataset through conversational queries rather than menu navigation — advancing toward autonomous AI-driven business management. The Oracle leadership transition (co-CEOs Clay Magouyrk and Mike Sicilia replacing Safra Catz) underscores Oracle's commitment to accelerating cloud product innovation across NetSuite, Oracle Cloud ERP (Fusion), and Oracle's SaaS portfolio.
