Hex
The collaborative data workspace that unifies SQL, Python, and interactive apps
About Hex
Hex is the modern evolution of the data science notebook. It solves the "Jupyter isolation" problem by creating a real-time, multi-player environment where SQL-fluent analysts and Python-heavy data scientists can build together.
### The Hex "Magic"
* **Reactive Execution**: Unlike Jupyter, Hex understands the graph of your code. If you change a variable in cell 1, all dependent cells (and charts) update automatically—no more stale state.
* **App Builder**: With one click, you can hide your code and turn your notebook into a beautiful, interactive "Logic App" for stakeholders with dropdowns, sliders, and input fields.
* **Semantic Awareness**: Hex integrates with **dbt**, allowing its AI to understand your governed metrics. You can ask "Show me revenue by region," and it will use your official dbt definitions.
**Best for**: Data teams at fast-growing companies (like Notion or Brex) who need to bridge the gap between technical exploration and stakeholder reporting.
