Altertable Agent Articles
Autonomous AI agents for data platforms. Explore memory-driven architectures and patterns for making AI agents useful in production data workflows.
Know What a Query Reads Before It Runs
Row estimates only hint at what an agent will read. Bytes pin it down. Our explain returns them from catalog metadata, before the engine touches a file.
Let Agents Render the Platform
Charts, queries, and interactive UI now render inside AI agents through MCP Apps—the same components as altertable.ai.
Memory Is Not a Database
Intelligence without memory is nothing. The right model is memory that lives, forgets, and knows where it belongs.
From Task Executors to Outcome Owners
AI is transforming data roles from task execution to strategic ownership. Learn how data teams are evolving in 2026 and what skills matter most in the AI era.
Upstreaming with AI
How we contributed 17 upstream PRs in 90 days—where AI accelerated our workflow, what we learned, and practical tips for open source success with AI assistance.
Under the Hood: Agents
Altertable agents think ahead. Powered by custom lakehouse and MCP, they monitor, investigate, and act on your data autonomously.

From Dashboards to Dialogue
Most dashboards are never opened twice. They clutter stacks, lag behind questions, and bury insight in clicks. We're replacing dashboard sprawl with AI agents.
