Twirl is joining Modal

Modal has announced the acquisition of Twirl, a data orchestration company that helps teams develop, test, and deploy data pipelines. Twirl’s founders, Eric Hansander and Rebecka Storm, bring extensive data-platform, analytics, and machine-learning leadership experience from companies including Better, Zettle, Tink, and others. The companies describe their missions as complementary: Modal has built serverless infrastructure from the compute layer upward, while Twirl focused on data transformation and orchestration, with both aiming to simplify work for AI, machine learning, and data teams. Twirl’s team will join Modal’s Stockholm office to help expand its serverless infrastructure and European presence, as Modal broadens beyond AI inference into related use cases such as sandboxed code execution and large-scale batch processing.
