About
Golden Analytics is a Bellevue, Washington-based AI-native business intelligence startup founded by Francois Ajenstat, formerly the chief product officer at Tableau 123. The platform connects to data stored in cloud warehouses or uploaded files, then uses AI to analyze the data and produce charts, dashboards, and written summaries in response to natural-language queries 23. Golden Analytics emerged from stealth in April 2026 with a $7M seed round from NEA and Madrona, and announced a $14M seed extension and public beta launch on June 9, 2026 — drawing early-access requests from roughly 1,000 companies, about one in six of them in the Fortune 500 123.
