About

Founded in 2019 by Goncalo Martins Ribeiro and Fabiana Clemente and headquartered in Seattle, YData built an AI-powered platform for generating high-fidelity synthetic datasets that preserve the statistical properties of original data without exposing sensitive records. Data science and ML teams use it to augment training sets, enable cross-team data sharing under privacy constraints, and comply with GDPR and HIPAA without blocking model development workflows. The platform supports tabular and time-series data generation and integrates with standard Python data science tooling. KPMG announced an agreement to acquire YData's IP and technology assets in October 2025.
