Dot

What is Dot?

Dot is an AI data analyst built for data teams. It answers business questions asked in natural language — in multiple languages — at any time of day, taking routine requests off the team’s plate so engineers can focus on deeper, more complex work. Dot connects to your existing stack through no-code integrations and includes enterprise-level security.

Answers stay accurate and consistent because an automated semantic layer applies your company’s approved business logic. Every result is checked and fully auditable, and an evaluation framework lets data teams test Dot’s performance before relying on it.

Who created Dot?

Dot was developed by Sled, a YCombinator-backed company. Its founder, Marcus Bernardi, leads Data and Analytics at Daki.
