Q/C Technologies

Q/C Technologies is not an investment manager — it does not run a fund or make allocation decisions. The firm is a technology and data provider that sells alternative data signals and data-engineering services to third-party quantitative asset managers. David Kabiller, co-founder, oversees strategy and product direction. The firm has no CIO or portfolio management function.

Q/C does not source investment deal flow nor commit capital to any asset class. The firm sources raw data from commercial satellite operators, consumer transaction aggregators, public regulatory filings, and logistics networks. It then structures these datasets for quantitative fund clients. Its proprietary edge lies in the transformation pipeline, not in the original data acquisition.

David Kabiller co-founded both firms, but they are legally and operationally separate with no cross-ownership or shared investment mandates. Kabiller remains a founding principal at AQR while leading Q/C Technologies independently. Q/C counts AQR among its potential clients but serves a broad range of quantitative managers. The two firms maintain distinct offices, teams, and revenue streams.

Q/C Technologies does not invest in any funds or direct deals. The firm builds data products and provides engineering support to quantitative asset managers who use those products in their own investment processes. Q/C's revenue model is entirely fee-for-service and licensing-based.

Q/C focuses exclusively on quantitative and systematic investment workflows. The firm does not supply data to fundamental long-only equity teams, private equity firms, or discretionary macro managers unless those teams operate a quant overlay. It avoids principal investing entirely and does not take balance-sheet risk on any dataset or trading strategy.
