The shift to AI analytics

For years, getting data into the hands of the business has been a challenge for data teams.

But in the AI era, access alone isn’t enough. Teams need the speed, flexibility, and depth of AI, but in an environment that stays trusted and grounded in the right business context.

Steep AI solves that problem.

Real analysis, not just answers

Built on top of your semantic model, the Steep agent gives teams a fast, powerful way to do analysis in natural language. It can connect metrics and dimensions, compare segments and time periods, and return clear answers grounded in the business logic your data team has defined.

Ask complex questions in plain language and refine the answers in the same conversation.
Explore your catalog using all metadata and descriptions available.
Get deep analysis using the full context of your semantic model, with the Steep agent combining multiple metrics and breakdowns for real insights.

Built into your workflow

Steep AI is available across Steep on desktop and mobile. Use it in full-screen for focused analysis, or open it alongside the UI from anywhere in the app. Your conversations stay with you as you move through Steep and sync across devices.

Designed for trust

The Steep agent runs on your semantic model and trusted metric definitions, so answers stay consistent, reliable, and aligned across Steep.

To make that trust visible, Steep AI includes built-in features that help users understand what answer they are seeing and why.

Links to metrics

The Steep agent links directly to the metrics it references, so users can open them in Explore and inspect them further.

Reasoning

Expand the reasoning behind any answer to understand how the Steep agent arrived at the result.

Clarifying questions

When a question is too ambiguous, the Steep agent asks clarifying questions before generating an answer.

Scale across your organization

Steep AI is built to scale across the organization, maintaining high performance while the data team stays in control.

Shared cache and permissions: Steep’s cache keeps answers fast and reduces unnecessary queries to the database, while users access only the data they already have permission to.
Fast responses: We’ve built Steep AI to respond quickly, even on large data models.
Open and modular: Teams can already build custom agents using our API, with more to come.

Availability and pricing

Steep Agent is now available for all paying workspaces. During the coming months, all functionality is available at no additional cost, within reasonable usage.

Later this year, we expect to include AI functionality in your package, with a credit amount based on the number of seats, and usage-based pricing beyond that threshold. We'll provide clear advance notice before any pricing changes take effect.
