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.
A free, AI-powered PDF editor for every device
Edit text, images, shapes, links, signatures and form fields in a document as easily as in a word processor.
Chat with a PDF, generate summaries and extract answers or text from long and awkwardly laid-out documents.
Convert between PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, TXT and images, including batch conversion with lossless output.
Turn scanned or image-based documents into fully editable Word or TXT files.
