Our Story

In 2017, at an Amazon seller event in Germany, two visionaries met who would reshape how advanced brands approach marketplace advertising. Danny McMillan, already recognised as a leading voice in the Amazon community, encountered Dr. Ellis Whitehead, whose academic background in data science complemented his proven track record in building scalable systems.

The partnership proved immediately powerful. Ellis contributed a deep understanding of algorithmic development and the technical expertise behind some of Jungle Scout's foundational algorithms. Danny brought extensive marketplace connections, strategic vision and, most importantly, his pioneering work in ranking campaigns that had already begun transforming Amazon optimisation.

What started as a shared frustration with the gap between available data and actionable insight became the core philosophy behind everything Databrill builds.
