Our Story

Big Forest began with a singular objective: to deal with Big Data. We formed a hypothesis based on Artificial Life models, that information could be enabled to grow by itself, into a familiar organic structure. Experiments proved the simplest instructions worked best, the 'rules of the tree.' Now we can take the massive, chaotic stream of global data and turn it into something human, intuitive, and useful. What started as an experimental visualization project has grown into an internationally patented platform.

Corporate Mission

We are an innovative technology company dedicated to transforming the way people interact with large-scale data. We build tools that follow one core belief: information behaves like something alive — given the right structure, it organises itself into something a person can actually read.

Headquarters

Proudly Australian-owned and operated, Big Forest is headquartered in Melbourne and Perth. Our research and development teams work locally to deliver globally impactful technology.
