An agentic analytics platform that turns questions into governed, trusted answers
Ask a question in plain language and get a reasoned answer with the SQL, charts and tables behind it, available in the Hex workspace, in Slack and from developer tools.
Write SQL, Python and R side by side in one project, then turn cells into interactive, parameterised data apps and dashboards without a separate BI authoring tool.
Centralise metrics, semantics and corporate definitions so answers stay consistent, and see exactly where the agent lacked grounding so you can fix it.
Run graded, rubric-based test suites against the agent to measure answer quality and catch regressions as your data and context evolve.
Turn plain text into diagrams, infographics, and presentation-ready visuals.
Paste or import your text and Napkin generates infographics, diagrams, flowcharts, mind maps, and data charts that fit your content.
Napkin Slides collaborates with you to turn ideas into complete, ready-to-present decks rather than static images.
Adjust colors, fonts, layouts, and icons, reshape individual elements, and match your brand — nothing is locked after generation.
Export visuals as PPT, PNG, PDF, or SVG and drop them into PowerPoint, Google Slides, Keynote, Notion, or any tool you already use.
