Core Features
Hex’s functionality is built around modularity and AI-driven productivity:
Modular Notebooks for Analysis Users can create structured workflows using SQL, Python, or R, with each notebook featuring a mix of code, visualizations, and markdown. The modular design allows for easy editing and reuse of components.
Interactive App Builder A no-code/low-code interface lets users design interactive applications by dragging and dropping visualization elements. Apps can be customized with filters, parameters, and real-time data updates.
AI-Powered Query & Code Assistance Hex’s smart assistant generates SQL queries, suggests code improvements, and automates repetitive tasks. It adapts to user preferences, speeding up data exploration and reducing errors.
Collaboration & Sharing Tools Teams can co-create notebooks, leave comments, and share results with stakeholders via secure links or embedded dashboards. Version control ensures transparency in collaborative projects.
Data Warehouse Integration The platform connects directly to major data warehouses (e.g., Snowflake, BigQuery) and third-party tools like Jira or Tableau, enabling real-time data pulls and embedding external data sources.
