About Daash Intelligence:

Daash Intelligence is a well-funded technology start-up pioneering the next-generation of predictive commerce intelligence. Our mission is to bring transparency to retail markets, enabling our customers to track and anticipate market trends more easily, more comprehensively, and more affordably, than ever before. Why does this matter? Because there are tens of thousands of small and medium-sized consumer product brands struggling to compete with the bigger, old school companies who can afford to spend millions of dollars per year on market research. Daash solves this problem by democratizing access to the actionable intelligence they need to succeed.  

Although we’re still in stealth mode, Daash has been getting great traction, with over 25 high profile clients already licensing the platform. But there’s a lot more work to do and we need your help! The problems we’re working on are challenging, but fun and incredibly rewarding to solve. The Daash team is getting it done – we’re super scrappy, highly motivated and fully funded. Join us!
