What We Do

The data science team focuses on helping drive business outcomes across Calm. The business problem comes first (what are we trying to solve?), and the analysis follows (how do we best solve this problem?). Sometimes the solution is straightforward and sometimes it is highly complex—we always rely on data to drive our solutions.
