Today we are launching Cube Agentic Analytics in general availability.
We first released a preview in the summer under the name D3, and the response was tremendous. Early customers gave us invaluable feedback, and we've been iterating on the product ever since.
Today I'm excited to announce that it's live for everyone in Cube—you can sign up and start using it right now.
With this update, we are removing "D3" from the name and unifying our semantic layers and agentic analytics product offerings under a single user interface and name - Cube.
Our vision is to create an agentic business intelligence platform where agents work alongside humans—from modeling to exploration and presentation. We're building agents that can handle the full range of BI tasks while giving humans fine-grained control over every action.
All of the features below are available as of today. Some might still have a few rough edges and will continue to improve rapidly—but they're fully functional and ready to use.
Semantic Model Agent
Semantic Model Agent helps you build data models from the ground up or improve existing ones. It can bootstrap data models from scratch based on tables in your cloud data warehouse, convert existing projects (like LookML files) into Cube data models, and continue building alongside you—adding measures, dimensions, updating descriptions and joins, creating views, and generally improving the data model as you go. It can also help create and optimize SQL transformations.
Workbooks and Dashboards
Workbooks and Dashboards provide the place for data exploration and presentation. In workbooks, users can explore the semantic model to find insights. While the workbook agent can build and update reports, we give users fine-grained control over all the details of the analysis - from fields and filters in queries to colors and labels on the chart. That design enables users to rely on AI for building the majority of the analysis and apply final touches and corrections when they see fit.
Dashboard is the presentation layer of the workbook. Once the analysis is done, it can be package into shareable artifact and deployed to be used across the organization. Workbooks and dashboards come with variety of visualizations - from tables, bars, lines, heatmaps to KPI cards and custom html/markdown charts. Workbook and dashboard agents are trained to create and update variety of visualizations supported by Cube.
Dashboards can be powered by Cube pre-aggregations for improved performance and embedded into your applications.
Analytics Chat
Analytics Chat is a helpful entry point to the analysis. Users can ask different questions —whether it's a direct question to look up information about a specific account or more open-ended questions to spot trends, uncover insights, or simply check how things are going.
The AI agent can create multiple queries, reason about the data, analyze it, and summarize findings back to the user. The agent in Analytics Chat queries the semantic model but can also create ad hoc analysis on top of existing measures and dimensions. This gives unique flexibility while maintaining full governance. Valuable insights from the Analytics Chat can be saved to Workbook for further analysis.
Doubling Down on Embedded Analytics
Cube is already powering embedded analytics applications across thousands of organizations, and with these new Agentic Analytics capabilities, we're doubling down on our embedded analytics offering.
We've designed all the agentic analytics features so they can be embedded into your applications. Users can continue to use our headless embedded offerings through the APIs, but now we also offer the possibility to embed all the experiences mentioned above—dashboards, workbooks, and analytics chats—with our frontend components, fully customizable to match the styles and theming of your application.
Pricing
With this update, we're adding user seat pricing only for users with direct access to Cube. Our embedded analytics offering remains priced based on compute, as it always has been.
We continue to provide a free tier and are including limited agent requests to the free tier.
Next Steps
If you're an existing Cube customer, simply log in to your account and activate Agentic Analytics capabilities.
For new customers, these capabilities are active from signup. Sign up today and try them out—our free tier gives you access to all features so you can explore our agentic capabilities.
