People Data Labs is your engineering partner for all things people data.

Our Story

At PDL we know that every company is rapidly transforming to solve problems in a more data-driven and people-driven manner. In order to succeed, companies are forming data departments, pivoting their focus into data acquisition, and doubling down on legal, security, and compliance to protect themselves. For these organizations, clean, rich, and compliant person data is critical and PDL is here to meet that demand.

Founded in 2015 by Henry Nevue and Sean Thorne, People Data Labs began as recruiting software, intended to help companies better understand and source candidates. Quickly, it became clear that our work extended far beyond recruiting. Henry and Sean began finding more and more diverse clients requesting access to PDL's raw data.

Today, the PDL platform seeks to enable all companies to build compliant people data solutions. Our sole focus is on building the best data available by integrating thousands of compliantly-sourced datasets into a single, developer-friendly source of truth. Over 3 billion profiles are used by leading companies to enrich recruiting platforms, power AI models, create custom audiences, and more.
