About
Hightouch is a San Francisco-based data activation and composable CDP (Customer Data Platform) platform — backed with approximately $220 million in total funding including an $80 million Series C in February 2025 at a $1.2 billion valuation (doubled from $615 million in 2023), with investors including Amplify, ICONIQ Growth, Y Combinator, and Bain Capital Ventures — providing data teams, growth marketers, and RevOps professionals with the reverse ETL infrastructure to sync customer data from Snowflake, BigQuery, Databricks, and Redshift data warehouses to 200+ business tools (Salesforce, Braze, HubSpot, Amplitude, Facebook Ads, Google Ads, Iterable) for marketing personalization, audience targeting, and operational workflow automation.
