Lopus — Startup Profile
Analytics platform that turns raw data into actionable unit‑economics insights for early‑stage startups
HQ: San Francisco, CA | Founded: 2022 | Employees: 18 | Stage: Seed
About
Lopus is an analytics platform that helps early‑stage companies track and improve unit economics without building an internal BI team. The product connects to data warehouses like Snowflake and BigQuery, delivers pre‑built dashboards for LTV/CAC, payback period, and gross margin, and offers a SQL‑free exploration layer for ad‑hoc analysis. Founded in 2022 by Alex Martinez and Priya Desai (with Samir Patel joining as VP of Engineering), the company graduated from Y Combinator’s S22 batch and has raised a Seed round from Uncork Capital and a Series A from Andreessen Horowitz. Lopus serves SaaS and e‑commerce businesses seeking real‑time insight into customer profitability and growth efficiency.
The Take
Lopus shows strong unit economics in sandbox tests but lacks public traction; its YC backing suggests potential, yet investors should verify customer adoption and revenue.
