What We Do

In a world moving at an incredibly fast pace, businesses have grown accustomed to change. Transforming their business model, pivoting their strategy, rethinking their go-to-market, the list goes on.

To enable these changes, they have also had to rethink the way they work.
Breaking down silos isn’t a best practice anymore. It’s a given.

And yet, when it comes to planning, little has changed. In fact, planning tools work the exact opposite way, reinforcing data and people silos, and preventing teams from working together toward their common goals.

As a result, planning is usually seen as a dreadful process.
But the truth is, planning drives strategy. It’s high time we serve it with the right tools.

Pigment is the business planning platform for fast-growing companies. Our mission is to help companies make better, faster decisions in a changing world, and drive revenue growth.
At Pigment we believe that:

✅ Real-time data informs better outcomes. Trim your sail, and make the best use of current winds.

✅ Reporting should be accurate, quick, and insightful.

✅ Planning should be simple, smooth, and delightful.

✅ Less time should be spent on data crunching, more time on bringing insights to the business.

✅ Collaboration should be at the heart of any planning process, so your organization works as one.
