Bringing together two of the Salesforce ecosystem’s most trusted names in data management.
The merger, expected to close in early November 2025, marks a major step forward in one shared mission: giving customers true data ownership, control, and AI-ready insights.
From day one, both CapStorm and GRAX have believed something simple yet powerful:
Your Salesforce data should belong to you, not the platform.
Today, that belief enters a new chapter.
Under the new structure, GRAX will merge with CapStorm, an Ascendx portfolio company known for its self-hosted, real-time Salesforce data integration platform. Together, we’ll form a unified Data + AI company built to help enterprises:
- Take full control of their data across AWS, Azure, GCP, or on-prem environments.
- Meet governance and compliance needs, designed for companies with regulated data.
- Leverage historical data to power AI, analytics, and innovation with confidence.
Ted Pappas will continue to lead the combined company as CEO, and is excited to share that GRAX Founder Joe Gaska will take on the role of Chief Product Officer and GRAX Co-Founder Christopher Haley will take on the role as COO, helping us drive the next generation of data and AI capabilities.
What this means for customers:
All GRAX customers will continue to receive the same great product experience, support, and roadmap they rely on, but with more innovation on the horizon. No action is required. Our commitment to reliability, trust, and customer success remains unwavering.
