What is the Keboola Data Platform?
Keboola is a cloud-native, end-to-end data operations platform that enables seamless integration, transformation, governance, and orchestration of data across systems. Unlike traditional ETL tools, Keboola acts as a data productivity layer, connecting disparate data sources—from CRMs and ERPs to marketing and SaaS tools—into a centralized, auditable, and automatable workflow.
Core Functions:
- Data ingestion from hundreds of sources.
- Data transformation using SQL, Python, or low-code processors.
- Data enrichment and orchestration via scenario automation.
- Governance and compliance with built-in version control and lineage.
- Collaboration-ready for data teams, business analysts, and ops teams alike.

The customer journey—from awareness to post-sale engagement—generates valuable behavioral, transactional, and experiential data. Keboola supports each stage by:

Conversion & Sales
Merging eCommerce/PoS systems with sales performance data to identify conversion bottlenecks.

Elevating Value with AI and Tools Beyond Make.com
-
While Make.com orchestrates external integrations beautifully, the true multiplier effect comes when Keboola is combined with other strategic tools and AI capabilities
-
LLM-Driven Insight Extraction: Embed GPT or Claude models into Keboola pipelines to summarize, classify, or enrich data post-ingestion—for example, categorizing open-ended customer feedback or extracting deal terms from contracts.
-
AutoML Platforms (e.g., DataRobot, Vertex AI): Feed prepared Keboola datasets into AutoML engines to predict churn, optimize pricing, or forecast demand—without requiring a team of data scientists.
-
Reverse ETL Tools (e.g., Census, Hightouch): Push enriched Keboola data back into operational tools like Salesforce, Intercom, or HubSpot—closing the loop from insight to action.
-
Process Intelligence Tools (e.g., Celonis): Use Keboola to pipe process data into process mining platforms to visualize inefficiencies and design automation opportunities. Together, these integrations turn Keboola from a data platform into a continuous value engine.
