Codd AI Is Officially Live: The Journey Behind the Launch

Codd AI Is Officially Live: The Journey Behind the Launch

After months of building, iterating, and sharing our thoughts behind the scenes — from ER modeling deep dives to the importance of semantic layers in AI-driven analytics — it's finally here: Codd AI is officially live.

Why This Matters to Me

Like many in the data world, I've witnessed a frustrating pattern over and over again:

A business leader asks a seemingly simple question.

The data team scrambles to untangle metrics, models, and dashboards.

After days or weeks, a report arrives — often too late to impact the decision.

Despite all the modern tools we have, getting clear, trustworthy answers from data remains harder than it should be. This isn't just a technology issue — it's a business context issue.

That's the problem I couldn't let go of.

The Turning Point

As we started exploring these challenges in our earlier blogs — on semantic layers, entity-relationship modeling, and AI hallucinations — one thing became crystal clear:

We don't need more dashboards. We need more understanding.

The real missing layer was semantic: connecting raw data to how a business actually operates. GenAI finally gave us the toolset to bridge that gap — not by replacing data teams, but by amplifying them with automated context, dynamic modeling, and explainable AI.

That insight became the foundation for Codd AI.

What We Built

Codd AI is a GenAI-powered semantic layer built to bring clarity back to data:

FeatureWhat It DoesBenefit
Context configurationAutomatically discovers entities, metrics, rulesReduces modeling by 70%+
Auto‑relationship mappingFinds joins and links across tablesNo manual schema mapping
Natural language queryingAllows plain-English questionsGets answers in seconds
Explainability & governanceEnables traceable insights & RBACTrustworthy, compliant analytics

This isn't another BI tool. It sits on top of your existing data stack — warehouses, BI tools, notebooks — acting as the intelligent glue that makes data actually usable.

The Journey Here

This product has been built through many long days (and nights), dozens of pivots, and conversations with real users who pushed us to simplify, rethink, and get laser-focused on solving one core problem: how to make data work for the people who need it.

It wouldn't have been possible without the early partners, advisors, and friends who challenged our assumptions and helped shape every piece of this platform. To all of you — thank you.

What's Next

Codd AI is live at codd.ai, and we're already working with our first customers. The early results are validating what we believed from the start: semantic clarity drives faster insights, stronger confidence, and better decisions.

But this is only Day 1.

We're just getting started.
