The AI-native data platform

Turn fragmented business data into trusted answers.

Connect databases, SaaS tools, files and warehouses. Sluice builds a governed data layer, creates your KPIs and lets your team ask questions in plain English — with every answer traceable back to its source.

Ask a question. Watch the dashboard build.

Plain English in, a governed dashboard out — on a real Czech retail-banking dataset (5,369 clients across 77 districts). The AI plans it, a deterministic engine writes the SQL, and every number traces to source.

The problem

Your data isn't the problem. Getting it into one trusted answer is.

DatabaseSaaS toolsExcel WarehouseAPIs
5+ tools
+ a data engineer
+ weeks of work
ONE KPI
MAYBE TRUSTED
Too many tools

Ingestion, transformation, orchestration, governance and BI all live in separate systems.

Too much engineering

Every new source or metric becomes another ticket in someone's backlog.

Too little trust

Even when a number reaches a dashboard, it's hard to prove where it came from.

Sluice is the fourth option: AI plans the pipeline, deterministic code executes it, you approve every step — and it all runs inside your own cloud.

The Sluice difference

One workflow. From source to answer.

The pipeline stops after profiling and won't build until you approve the AI's plan. AI plans, deterministic code executes, you hold the gate.

What one plan replaces

The modern stack is four separate contracts — before the engineers to wire and run it.

Modeling / transforms$3,000–8,000/mo
Governance / catalog$4,000–14,000/mo
Dashboards / BI$1,000–6,000/mo

Ranges are realistic market prices for the equivalent tools — not quotes. Your cloud data warehouse is excluded (you pay it either way).

How it works

Connect. Approve. Answer.

1 / Connect

Point Sluice at your data

Paste a connection string, drop a file, or pick a SaaS source. Sluice profiles every table, fixes types and encodings, runs quality checks, and masks PII before anything moves.

2 / Approve

Review one plan

The AI reads your real schema — and your requirements doc, if you upload one — and proposes entities, value-verified joins, data marts, KPIs and a dashboard. You edit and approve. Nothing builds without you.

3 / Answer

Get a live, governed dashboard

KPIs build deterministically from the approved plan, refresh on a schedule, feed Power BI & Excel, and answer plain-English questions — every number reconcilable to the raw source.

📈

ROI from the first week

No new hires, no six-month setup, no five vendor contracts. Start free, pay only as your data grows — and get the output of a data team for a fraction of the cost of one.

🛡️

Compliance without the effort

Sensitive data is detected and protected automatically, every run leaves an audit trail, and your data never leaves your cloud. Governance isn't an add-on — it's the default.

Data residency

Your cloud, your compute, our platform.

The platform is the only thing that's ours. The medallion builds and lands inside your cloud, on your compute — we store encrypted credentials and metadata, never your rows. Don't have the infrastructure yet? Run on ours, and move it in-house whenever you're ready.

Your cloud & compute

Bronze, Silver and Gold build and land inside your infrastructure. Nothing leaves your perimeter.

Only metadata leaves

Encrypted credentials + schema statistics — never values. PII stays masked, always.

No infrastructure? Use ours

Start on Sluice-managed compute & storage, then bring it into your own cloud on your timeline.

Agent-ready

Your numbers, queryable by any AI agent.

Dashboards were built for humans. The next thing that reads your analytics is your company's AI agents — and they need governed, deterministic, PII-safe access, not a database password. Sluice exposes your metrics over MCP: hand any MCP-capable agent (Claude, GPT, your own) a scoped key, and it can answer questions from your governed numbers — without ever touching raw data or writing SQL.

Governed by construction

Agents read the same masked Silver & Gold the UI does — PII is masked before this layer, raw data is never exposed.

Deterministic, never a guess

The agent proposes; our compiler verifies. Same question → same number, no agent-authored SQL, an honest "no" when it can't be resolved.

Scoped, revocable, metered

A per-project key exposes only that project. Revoke instantly; every call is logged for audit.

The medallion, automated

Governed data, not just dashboards.

Every run walks the medallion — land raw, govern & shape, aggregate to KPIs — so the numbers on your dashboard are typed, deduped, PII-masked and reconcilable to the source.

01 / Bronze

Land & clean, automatically

Sluice profiles every source, auto-detects headers and encodings, cleans each table, runs quality checks, and detects & masks PII — email, phone, IDs — before anything moves downstream.

  • Typed columns, deduped rows, encoding-safe
  • Data-quality checks with a reason table
  • PII detected & masked at the source

02 / Silver

Govern & join, the way you mean it

Sluice conforms types, applies masking, and detects relationships from the data itself — composite keys, dirty-key normalization, multi-hop chains — so joins are verified against your rows, never assumed.

  • Value-verified joins with cardinality
  • Reusable data marts at a business grain
  • Region-aware governance (DPDP / GDPR / CCPA)
03 / Gold

KPIs that actually reconcile

One Gold table per KPI, generated deterministically from the approved plan — deep joins, ratio-of-aggregates, running totals, month-over-month, moving averages, rank and share-of-total — all fan-out-safe, so a category total sums back to the grand total.

  • Window math: running total, MoM, rank, share
  • Fan-out-safe SUM — no double counting
  • OData feed → Power BI & Excel

The AI analyst

Describe your business. Get a plan.

Not a chart. Not a dashboard. A full, approvable plan over your actual schema — entities, relationships, data marts, KPIs and the target dashboard. Upload a requirements doc and it reads it. You edit, approve, and the whole pipeline builds from it.

Full plans, not charts

Entities, joins, marts, KPIs and a dashboard — approvable in one place.

Every number auditable

Each KPI carries its SQL, its grain, and reconciles to the raw source.

Learns your business

Approved joins & meanings compound — each run starts smarter.

Integrations

Plug in everything. Leave nothing behind.

Databases, warehouses, files and APIs. If it has a connection string or an endpoint, Sluice already speaks to it — and lands it as governed tables in your cloud.

Pricing

Pay for answers. Not rows, seats or cores.

A simple base plan plus pay-as-you-go usage — no per-seat, ever; your whole team is included. Pushdown to your own warehouse is always unmetered, and governance — PII masking, contracts, quality, lineage, audit — is in every plan. Storage is billed only if your data rests on us. Annual billing = one month free.

Pay-as-you-go, same rate on every plan: processed-GB past your plan billed per GB · ask-anything past quota billed per 1,000 questions · storage only if your data rests on us — ₹6 / GB-month (free when you connect your own cloud) · pushdown always unmetered.
Compare the alternative: one data engineer is ₹1–2.5L/month, fully loaded — before any tooling. Every Sluice tier returns more than it costs from the first pipeline.

The distance between raw data and trusted answers is one approval.
