Who actually makes buying decisions at MotherDuck?
The buying committee depends on the product being sold. Technical products usually start with engineering, security, data or infrastructure leaders; GTM products start with revenue operations or marketing; finance and people tools start with CFO, HR, payroll, compliance or operations owners. C-level approval becomes more likely for strategic, cross-functional or high-risk systems.
How is MotherDuck organized as it scales?
At ~100-200, MotherDuck is large enough to have specialized procurement, security and functional budget owners. Sellers should expect multiple stakeholders, a documented business case and integration review rather than a founder-only buying path.
