Salary benchmarks
Our take
In an ever-changing world, demand for more effective and accessible planning tools is rising. Pigment is meeting this demand with its business planning platform.
Pigment’s platform is disrupting a market that has long been dominated by generic spreadsheet programs like Excel. Its primary focus lies on forecasting and planning, enabling businesses to model and test outcomes. This is designed to improve the efficacy and reliability of decision making.
Taking on incumbents such as Excel, which boasts around one billion users, is no easy feat. However, Pigment’s innovative forecasting tools, ease-of-use and significant funding should give it a fighting chance in a market that is continuing to make space for disruptors. They have attracted impressive clients including Figma, PayFit, and Gong.
