Hex is a cloud-based collaborative data platform that integrates SQL, Python, R, and no-code components into a unified notebook environment. Teams can write queries, build visualizations, and publish results as shareable, interactive data applications without requiring recipients to have coding knowledge. Hex supports real-time collaboration, allowing multiple users to work simultaneously within the same project. Its AI features, branded as Hex Magic, assist with code generation, debugging, and data exploration. The platform connects to a wide range of data warehouses and databases, enabling analysts and data scientists to work directly against live data sources. Published apps can be embedded or shared via link, making it possible to distribute self-serve analytics experiences to business stakeholders. Hex is designed to reduce the gap between data analysis and data communication, serving data teams at startups, mid-market companies, and enterprises.
