Blobby learns to analyze hand drawn notes (annotations, in app chat, notifications, and more)
Chris Swenson, Luke Bowerman ·The Future Ai Dashboards Workbook I can't describe this properly just watch
All I can say is you need to watch this one if you want to see the future. We have some of the basics with a new twist, like conversations and tagging for dashboards. But we also layer in hand-drawn annotation (think Microsoft paint) combined with the magic of Blobby. Circle an outlier and ask Blobby to go figure out why. Drill with a marker. Ask a question with a picture. This is a window into the future of analytics.
Python in Omni plus Blobby learns Python
Gustav Staprans, Jonathan Swenson, Dan Spangenberger, TJ Banghart ·Ai Python Workbook
The goal with Omni has always been more of everything. Python is more of something. Here we give a demo of some work on bringing data science to the app, and, of course, making sure Blobby can take advantage.
Model demotion
Conrad Slimmer ·Modeling
The monotonic model growth will be no more! Maybe the feature request we’ve talked about the most internally. Data models grow. Sometimes that is good, sometimes it was because you did a one-off thing you’re never going to look at again (or maybe even look at, but don’t need polluting everyone’s headspace). Conrad worked on bringing all that metadata to the data model, and ultimately allow users to push data model from the shared model back into their dashboards!!
Super serious[ly awesome] emoji AI feedback
Mariel Freyre ·Ai Workbook
Feedback (and the follow up tuning) is a core part of building the AI experience. This demo reimagines the AI feedback with emojis to quickly let your developers know what is working and what isn’t. And some fun baked in too.
Crossfiltering beta
Steven Talbot, Rob Miller ·Dashboards
Coming soon! We’ve been putting work into the cross-filter UX so you can slice and dice to hearts content with charts instead of filters. Testing internally, let us know if you want an early look.
Blobby learns to spreadsheet
Richard Czechowski ·Ai Spreadsheet
Step one was bringing a full dashboard into Omni. Step two is making it so AI can build those spreadsheets for you. Richard demos a few of those functions, including an instant invoice generation from a row of data, styling, or quick summary stats.
Blobby learns to build dashboards (plus the best loader you’ve ever seen)
Alisa Tatarinova ·Ai Dashboards Blobby Bouncer
Alisa shows off a quick tool to let Blobby bring content between environments (plus an awesome loader). Stay until the end to see Blobby building a new dashboard tile on the fly. More AI everywhere.
Omni full app inside MCP
Meredith Dodge, Joel Dodge ·Ai Mcp The future
Bit of a futuristic demo. Here we load the full app into the MCP experience, including backlinks to the core app.
Blobby learns to build a DB connection (AI get started)
Nate Agrin ·Administration Ai
AI everywhere is the goal. Blobby takes on adding a new database connection in Omni, meaning you can set up a connection and get querying inside a minute in the AI chat.
Connection setup clean up
Nate Agrin ·Administration
Bunch of fresh UX paint on the connection setup page. Better organization, more clear feedback, instant model, etc.
Blobby learns to debug your database connection
Cathy Lennon ·Administration
A little AI makes everything better. Here Blobby helps figure out why the DB connection didn’t go as plans, with little helpers and a Q&A to get you unblocked quickly.
Embed web components
Nate Agrin ·Embed
Adding a bit more delight to the developer experience for embed builders.
Omni CLI + Omni 1980 UI
Nate Agrin ·Administration Modeling
Bunch of work on the CLI, including a nice new (?) UX.
Release FYI / understand Omni versions (mostly internal)
Brian Frantz, Kyle Speer ·Administration Internal
We ship alot of code (34 demos this week). It makes debugging which app version is live tricky for us internally. Our friendly neighborhood devops team built a full UI + Slack experience to make sure we can debug quickly.
Dashboard auto pretty plus new layout controls (keyboard, multi element)
James Bueche ·Dashboards
First, we show off some new UX controls for dashboards - multi-element grabbing, keyboard controls, quick delete, etc. Then you see some new AI magic for instantly making a dashboard layout nicely. More to do here, but AI everywhere!
Omni employee directory (internal)

Blobby learns to surf the web
Jamie Davidson ·Ai
Blobby can soon enrich results with live web queries, for deeper, multi-modal use cases (all fake names, etc).
Long running task notifications
Trip Tate ·Ux Scheduler Ai
It’s not fun to sit and stare at your monitor for long-running tasks (think queries then render or long AI sessions). Soon you’ll be able to use notifications to return when the job is done.
letmeblobbythatforyou.com
Chris Merrick, Trey Shugart ·Ai Fun
We built a quick microsite for when you need to help a friend understand their data better.
Blobby suggests dashboards instead
Chris Merrick, Trey Shugart ·Ai Dashboards
Blobby has been a magical unlock for avoiding dashboard bloat. Just ask. But sometimes there was already a dashboard that answers your question perfectly. Soon Blobby can redirect you to those instead of reinventing the wheel.
AI Explo-to-Omni conversion tooling
Gary Lin, Andrew Chen ·Ai Administration Conversion
The former Explo team shows off a bunch of new tooling to bring dashboards and reports from Explo instantly into Omni, of course with lots of Clauding behind the scenes.
Blobby tasks (ie Blobby builds your slide deck)
Arielle Strong ·Ai Slides Vibes
Surely you’ve done an analysis that you had to present in slides. Soon Blobby can build your decks or docs for you. Arielle shows off a few use cases for the new AI Tasks.
Blobby learns ETL
Chris Merrick ·Ai Etl
If you’re anything like us, on the last day of the quarter you’re sitting on dashboards waiting for the new ETL to land. Soon Blobby will be able to reach into Fivetran for new data on command.
Automated documentation
Nancy Chacko, Erin Cochran ·Docs Ai
We ship alot of code. Sometime docs are the bottleneck for customers taking advantage (including screenshots). The team has been working on offloading some of that work to Claude to make sure our docs can keep up with our builders.
Table text formatting (pills and icons)
Sarah Waterson ·Visualization Tables Workbook Dashboards
We’re prettying up the data table with pills and icons (backed with conditional formatting of course), so your data pops. And, like everything else, can take advantage of modeled colors for consistent table presentations anywhere you use dimensions.
Markdown columns
Richard Czechowski ·Tables Visualization Dashboards
We’re bringing all the flexibility of markdown to the data table. Grab values across the row for quick ultra-flexible data styling.
AI columns any dialect
Richard Czechowski ·Ai Workbook Calcs
We already released AI functions in Snowflake, but soon you’ll be able to take advantage of classifiers and other quick row-actions in any dialect using our calc layer.
Blobby learns to Slack
Eli Cohen ·Ai Slack
The goal is buttons only when you want them. Here we quickly send a dashboard to Slack using Blobby.
Multi-step MCP Omni workflows (query, build dash, schedule)
Corey Ruderman ·Ai Mcp The Future
An end-to-end demo of Blobby writing query, building dashboard with said query, and even building up a schedule on the result. Running the whole app from the MCP chat box.
Blobby voice mode
Jared Hardy ·Ai Voice
We’re seeing more and more Blobby usage on mobile, so Jared built a way to take advantage of voice for AI data exploration.
Dark mode vis config defaults
Jared Hardy ·Visualization Administration
An early preview of enabling chart styles independently for dark mode.
Styling stub periods in charts

Visualization*
Autohealing code tests
Kalen Petersen ·Internal Engineering Productivity
Our dev team got some new goodies too. Here we show off an end-to-end framework for Claude to understand and refine tests that let us ship safer, better, faster.
Release summarization AI
Jack Sweeney ·Internal Docs
Bit of new tooling to make sure the product team can see everything getting shipped and make sure you all know about it.
