In this episode of Selling Signals, we’re joined by Jordan Hauer, Founder and CEO of Amass Insights. Through Amass, Jordan helps investment firms discover, evaluate, and source datasets while also helping data providers better understand and monetise their assets.
Having spent more than a decade at the centre of the market, Jordan has a unique perspective on how alternative data has evolved, from the industry’s early days of scarce and highly differentiated datasets to today’s world of abundant data and rapidly advancing AI tools.
We discuss which datasets are seeing the strongest demand in 2026, how funds evaluate new data sources, and why sales cycles remain stubbornly long despite significant improvements in the market. Jordan also shares his views on trials, pricing, backtesting, and the common mistakes data providers make when trying to sell to investment firms.
Whether you’re a data provider, investor, or anyone building in the data economy, this episode offers a valuable look at where the industry is heading next.
