Datalicious.ca does data visualization and user interfaces (0)
Datalicious is a relatively new company in Montreal started by Sébastien Pierre. As stated in the company’s homepage, it focuses on creating optimized interfaces for data visualization.
Sébastien Pierre is a newcomer from Belgium and France, having started there a small software R&D company named ivy.fr. He is known for the revealicious project (demo also avalaible on datalicious), which grabbed a lot of buzz a few years ago.
Now, MontrealTechWatch don’t usually cover service providers; however since MTW’s main focus is “Technology and Innovation”, I think the company fits here. Datalicious uses a wide range of open source technologies, as well as public APIs to create new user interfaces, and seems to excel on both fields. It’s an approach I haven’t yet seen in Montréal, and brings fresh ideas that I hope will initiate and inspire local great projects.
I especially like the craftsmanship & attention to detail that can be seen in the website and projects like revealicious.
PS: ok, I just re-read the post, and it seems like blatant advertising. No, I was not paid for this post :-) But still, I like datalicious’ approach.
