In this session, led by dbt co-founder Drew Banin, we’ll explore how dbt Copilot is transforming analytics workflows today and provide a preview of exciting AI features coming soon.

Kick off Coalesce at the Keynote and Product Spotlight! Seven years ago, in the early days of dbt, dbt Labs was building capabilities that made data developers more productive.

For the last 5 years, dbt has been an authority on how analytics work gets done. But we know novel workflows aren’t promulgated through top-down adoption—they have to be baked in at the start.

dbt is an essential part of the modern data stack. Over the past four years, the most innovative and forward-thinking data teams have implemented a best-of-breed approach to analytics.

A shared understanding of how data is defined and managed provides confidence in how it's used. Metadata makes data valuable. But it also holds enormous potential for creating value in and of itself, through workflow tuning, optimization, and a variety of other performance-based use cases.
