Megascope Data, LLC

What Megascope Data, LLC does

Megascope Data, LLC is a privately held, founder-owned consulting firm that builds impact-focused business intelligence solutions on Microsoft Power BI for nonprofits, government agencies, and 211/Information & Referral (I&R) networks. The company was founded by Caleb Goodrum, who brings prior experience as an Air Force Intelligence officer, founder of a nonprofit coffee startup (Refugee Coffee Co), and director of data and reporting for a statewide 211 service. Its service portfolio spans four offerings: Project-based Services (custom interactive dashboards from spreadsheets or databases), Managed Reporting Services (ongoing Power BI, PDF, and spreadsheet production on behalf of clients), Power BI Consulting (architecture, setup, and in-house training), and Data & Reporting Checkups (assessment and standardization of existing reporting processes).

The firm operates using a proprietary four-step methodology (DATA-MODEL-ANALYZE-REPORT) with Agile sprints designed to deliver a pilot dashboard in days. It has produced a catalog of public-facing specialized dashboards covering statewide 211 platforms, disaster response, 988 Lifeline crisis services, equity analysis toolkits, employee climate surveys, and racial wealth gap data storytelling. Underlying technology is exclusively Microsoft's Power BI platform; no proprietary data platform, AI/ML models, or APIs are documented. Customer concentration sits heavily in the 211/I&R vertical, with named engagements at 211 Illinois, Florida 211 Network, Heart of Florida United Way, and Crisis Center of Tampa Bay. The company differentiates itself through domain specialization rather than technology, reinforced by an equity discount on impact-oriented projects and a brand identity tied to W.E.B. Du Bois's data-for-society vision.

Commercially, Megascope generates revenue through project-based professional services engagements and recurring managed reporting contracts, with contact-based pricing (no public price list) and bespoke scoping. Go-to-market is relationship-driven: industry conferences (Inform USA 2025), website/case-study content, direct phone and email outreach, and professional referrals within the nonprofit and government ecosystem. The company is bootstrapped, structured as an LLC in the Columbia, South Carolina area (area code 803), and has no disclosed external funding, parent company, or management team beyond the founder.
