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.
Managed ClickHouse® and tooling to ship real-time analytics features
Write SQL and publish it as low-latency HTTP endpoints, backed by columnar storage and serverless scaling, without managing clusters, sharding or Zookeeper.
Stream events over an HTTP Events API, Kafka, S3, GCS, DynamoDB or URLs in Parquet, CSV and NDJSON, so telemetry, transactions and logs land where you can query them.
Create zero-copy, full-stack environments with production data for testing, and roll out schema changes as safe migrations without taking the system offline.
A CLI plus TypeScript and Python SDKs, along with agent skills and a remote MCP server, let AI coding assistants build and deploy analytics pipelines directly.
