The honest brief
Holistics
Its AI reasons over a governed semantic layer (AQL) so answers stay grounded in defined metrics — verifiable BI, not ad-hoc text-to-SQL.
- Lineage and multi-turn query context
- Analytics-as-code with Git and dbt integration
- Self-service exploration for non-technical users
- Established, profitable, bootstrapped vendor
- Paid-only — plans start around $800/month
- Semantic-layer modeling has a setup cost
- Smaller ecosystem than incumbent BI suites
Zenlytic
Grounds its AI analyst in a governed semantic layer, so answers reconcile to existing metric definitions instead of free-form SQL guesses.
- Answers checked against a semantic layer
- Connects to major warehouses, dbt, and Looker
- Delivers analyses in Slack and Teams
- Built for non-technical self-serve users
- Public pricing isn't listed (sales-led)
- Requires a modeled semantic layer to shine
- Smaller vendor than incumbent BI suites
