  • Returns SQL, charts, and explanations
  • Adapts to your business concepts
  • Native to the Databricks platform
  • Locked to the Databricks platform
  • Billed via compute (DBUs)

Definite

Collapses warehouse, ETL, and BI into one platform that spins up in minutes, instead of stitching separate tools together over months.

  • Exposes data to Claude/Cursor via MCP
  • Fi builds full data apps, not just charts
  • 500+ connectors
  • Free tier; $250/mo Standard
  • All-in-one means less best-of-breed depth
  • Younger platform, evolving quickly
  • Standard plan caps before Enterprise
