Interactive courses for data science, AI and analytics skills
Short browser-based exercises in Python, SQL, R and more give instant feedback so you learn by writing real code.
Structured learning paths for data analyst, data scientist, AI engineer and other roles sequence courses into a coherent curriculum.
Exams such as AI Fundamentals, SQL Associate and Data Analyst certification let you demonstrate verified skills to employers.
An in-platform AI assistant helps explain concepts and debug code, alongside courses on the OpenAI API, prompt engineering and building AI apps.

Build, deploy, and govern production-ready agentic AI workflows
A visual canvas where retrieval, branching, tool calls, human review, and model steps form a visible, testable execution path you can debug and hand off.
Create agents through chat or manual configuration, give them skills, tools, and knowledge, then ship them as apps, embeds, or reusable nodes inside workflows.
Build repeatable ingestion pipelines for documents, sites, and drives, with extraction, cleaning, chunking, indexing, and retrieval testing before you go live.
Install model providers, tools, data sources, and MCP integrations once and reuse approved plugins across every app in the workspace.
