nao
AI data IDE for 10x faster data work
Visit website →About
Nao is an AI data IDE for analysts, engineers, and scientists who write SQL, Python, or dbt workflows. It lets a user preview changes, catch issues early, and deploy with confidence.
It connects directly to the data warehouse and understands the schema, so work goes faster with fewer bugs and more trust in the data. Users can build pipelines, run quality checks, do analytics, and collaborate across teams without switching between tools.
It is aimed at data teams who want an AI teammate built for modern data work, one that understands their warehouse and fits into their workflow rather than being a general assistant.

Why we picked it
Nao made the cut for understanding the actual warehouse schema before you run anything — previewing changes and catching issues before deploy matters specifically for data work, where a bad pipeline change breaks dashboards other people depend on.
