Airbyte is addressing the limitations of existing data integration solutions by offering an open-source platform that supports extensive customizations and a diverse range of connectors. The platform promotes data security by enabling self-hosting and provides seamless integration with other data tools while allowing users to manage their own data pipelines autonomously. Airbyte aims to rapidly scale its connector offering, from 60 connectors at launch to 1,000 by 2022, fostering a community-driven model to support an expansive data infrastructure.

2. Data is huge
and growing,
with COSS
omnipresent
in data
infrastructures

3. Only 2% of connectors are prebuilt
They only support 150 connectors (over 10k+ potential ones),
and won’t be able to cover the long tail because of
maintenance costs and ROI consideration.
No adaptability to custom use cases
Closed-source prevents their customers from having any
kind of control on the connectors, and to adapt any
pre-built connectors to their specific needs.
Counter-productive pricing model based
on volume
Charging on active rows is not aligned with the value
proposition to replace data engineers, whose budget is not
indexed on volume of data.
3rd-party liability with data security &
privacy
Companies cannot afford to have their sensitive customer data
through cloud-based services without a strong privacy
compliance process.
Closed-source limitations Cloud-based limitations
Limitations of existing solutions

4. On our way to address the long tail
Within only 8 months, Airbyte started supporting 60 connectors.
Airbyte’s goal for 2021 is 200 connectors, and 1,000 in 2022.
Extensible to address your exact needs
You can build or edit any pre-built connectors to your specific
needs. Airbyte’s decoupled modules also integrate with your
data stack (DBT, Kubernetes, Airflow)
Frictionless adoption experience
No need for any approval from security teams or management,
before a contributor can start replicating data.
Data security as a first-class citizen
Self-hosted means Airbyte never has access to your data.

More value-based pricing

5. An easy-to-use UI to start replicating data
in minutes
Airbyte empowers analysts / scientists to replicate data
without help from data engineers.
Designed to handle 100% of your pipeline
maintenance and setup
Scheduled
incremental updates
Real-time monitoring
with logs
Manual full refresh
Debugging autonomy
Full control over the
data to replicate
Optional normalization
+ DBT integration
Empower your data teams

6. Integration with your stack
Airbyte’s integration with DBT, Kubernetes, and Airflow
enables your data engineering team to build their ideal
data architecture.
An API for programmatic cases
Want to use Airbyte’s connectors from within your workflow or
product? Airbyte offers an API for that.
Some use cases:
- Marketing intelligence platform
Offer their customers all of Airbyte’s marketing-related
connectors from within their platform, without having to build
and maintain them.
- Data Team as a Service for DTC Brands
Enable their customers to connect all their e-commerce tools in
order to get all their customers’ data to provide data analytics
service.
