01 / Product Detail
Turn each ask into Data MCP, Data Agent, and Data App artifacts.
02 / Artifacts
Lanikaia produces three concrete artifacts.
01
Data MCP
A governed interface for data use
Datasets, functions, metrics, policies, and lineage are published as MCP tools. Agents and internal tools can call only the data and definitions they are allowed to use.
Evaluation lens: can existing metrics, dbt assets, and policies be called safely as MCP tools?
02
Data Agent
An agent that advances an ask into executable work
A natural-language ask becomes a work unit with referenced data, generated code, intermediate tables, review context, and approval state. It is not a chat transcript. It is reproducible analysis history.
Evaluation lens: can the same ask be rerun by another team, another period, or another data snapshot?
03
Data App
A business surface for verified findings
Verified results are published to workflows, approvals, operational views, APIs, MCP, BI, or Excel output. Analysis does not end as a report. It enters operating cadence.
Evaluation lens: where does the output connect to board review, weekly review, or daily operation?
03 / Product Flow
One ask moves through five states.
- 01
Ask
A user asks in business language. Example: why did churn rise among our key accounts?
- 02
Context
Lanikaia gathers metrics, policies, catalog grants, and related history, then fixes the definitions and readable scope before execution.
- 03
Execute
The agent generates SQL, Python, or workflow logic and runs it against Iceberg snapshots and semantic assets.
- 04
Review
Analysts, domain experts, and data owners inspect the answer, generated code, source references, and approval state in one place.
- 05
Promote
Only valuable work is promoted into a Data MCP, Data Agent, or Data App for reuse.
04 / Evaluators
Each reader should know what to inspect.
CDO / Head of Data
Checks whether Data MCP, Data Agent, and Data App artifacts fit the company's governance model and responsibility boundary.
Data Platform Lead
Checks where Polaris, Iceberg, dbt, identity, and audit logs connect.
Analyst / BI Lead
Checks whether disposable analysis becomes a rerunnable commit and a business output.
Security / Governance
Checks pre-execution denial, post-execution lineage, approvals, and audit logs.
