Deepnote, a startup that is building a data science platform on top of Jupyter-compatible notebooks, today announced that it has raised a $20 million Series A round co-led by Index Ventures and Accel, both of which also participated in its 2020 seed round. Existing investors Y Combinator and Credo Ventures also participated in this round.

As Deepnote co-founder and CEO Jakub Jurovych told me, the company has pretty much stayed true to its original vision since its launch a couple of years ago.“When we started out, we were coming from this data science and machine learning background,” Jurovych explained. The remote-first company plans to use the new funding to build out its product and expand its foothold in the data science community. Today, 80 out of the top 100 universities in the world use Deepnote in at least some of their classes. So while Deepnote specifically targets data scientists, one of the teams’ goals is to lower the barrier of entry for using notebooks (while staying fully compatible with the Jupyter standard).
