My apologies if I missed this when looking at your product site, but how is the ongoing cost structured?
Also, is this OSS with some sort of stated license model, or purely proprietary software?
It looks like a really great idea to package all these evolving best practice concepts into one product!
Appreciate that
Right now it’s proprietary and free, there’s no ongoing cost. I don’t have a pricing model locked in yet. The rough idea is to eventually go freemium (keep the core stuff free, add a paid tier for heavier/advanced use). Still figuring out what makes sense, and I’ll be upfront if/when that changes.
The main motivation really was what you mentioned: so many “best practices” live in blog posts or scattered docs, but almost no one actually packages them into something usable. I’m just trying to pull those ideas together in a way that saves people from reinventing the wheel. Still early days, so I’m curious to see if it resonates beyond my own itch.
Ah, thanks for flagging this. I’ve actually seen that 404 myself a couple of times, but it’s pretty rare and usually goes away on retry. Looks like something flaky in the GitHub OAuth flow. I need to dig in and investigate properly
As someone who is actually in the process of procuring something like Informatica/Alation I was really keen to have a play with your tool. As described it sounds like a good starting point for some of our less capable teams.
I REALLY struggled to make lineage work though. Is there some kind of trick?
Also while logged in (used google in the end) I couldn’t go back to the front splash page - it kept just showing me my project page. I wanted to go back and look at the marketing!
Lineage as of now is build within each indicator. You have to select for each indicator what are the main sources for it (either indicator or whole node). Did you struggle in terms of interface, lineage computation (server side), or any other topic ?
I think I should rework the way table node are made, and how users can define proper lineages within their canvas. If you have any suggestion :)
I'll also work to provide user a way to go back to the home page. If you have any feedback on how I could improve the marketing, I would welcome them with gratitude.

When I try to sign in with GitHub I get the ‘this isn’t the page you’re looking for’ github 404 error.

No worries.
