Athenic 2.0

The part I find most interesting is trusting an agent to pick the join paths across tables on its own — that's usually where text-to-SQL tools quietly get the number wrong but still return something confident-looking. How are you handling the cases where the schema is ambiguous: does Athenic show its reasoning / the SQL it ran so an analyst can sanity-check, or is it more of a trust-the-answer flow?

@eggro @jared_zhao The “analyze on autopilot” angle is strong if it helps teams move from dashboards to decisions. A lot of analytics tools show what happened, but the real value is surfacing what changed, why it matters, and what someone should look at next.

the agentic data analyst framing implies the agent takes initiative rather than just responding. curious what the actual agent behavior looks like in practice. does it proactively flag anomalies in connected data, suggest analyses you haven't asked for, or is the agent label more about multi-step reasoning within a query than about autonomous action between sessions. the distinction matters a lot for how people would integrate this into their workflows
