About Syntho

When real data is sensitive, missing or problematic - turn to synthetic data!

Syntho is an Amsterdam-based start-up enabling organizations to safely and efficiently work with privacy-preserving, production-like data. Our mission is simple: unlock data by making high-quality synthetic data accessible.

Syntho is entering its next growth phase.

We are strongly focused on our core use cases, test data and demo data, targeting a clearly defined ICP. With initial product‑market fit, we are now scaling—and this role is key in driving that growth.

You’ll join at a pivotal moment: from early traction to market leadership in Europe.

What makes us unique? Syntho brings all synthetic data generation methods into one platform, including:

  • Synthetic Data Masking
  • Rule-Based Synthetic Data
  • AI-Generated Synthetic Data

This allows organizations to tailor data generation to their exact use case—ensuring outputs are accurate, privacy preservative, and production-like.
