What is dbt, anyway?

Watch our co-founder, Drew Banin, explain how dbt helps data teams standardize, transform, and trust their data — so you can make faster, more confident business decisions at scale.

Why dbt?

Prepare data for analysis in a way that’s centralized, modular, and entirely open — all inside your cloud data platform. dbt lets your team reduce costs, ship faster, and build trusted data products.

Comprehensive governance

Standardize your data transformation processes in one platform for consistency and reliability.

Granular roles & access control

Define precise access permissions to safeguard data integrity and prevent unauthorized changes.

Automated data lineage tracking

Visualize data flow and dependencies to enhance transparency and facilitate impact analysis.

Optimize your workflows

Upgrade your team's data transformation workflows by providing software development best practices — like version control, testing, CI/CD, and auto-documentation. dbt Cloud adds more efficiency, governance, and standardization for a smarter, faster way to ship data.


Build trust with business

Add transparency to your data development process with a visual DAG and templated IDE. Embedded governance makes it easy to understand the lineage of data transformations for accurate results and reliable reporting.

  • "Trust is so important because we are the experts in data analysis. And if you have a good level of trust, your insights are more likely to be robustly discussed."

    Sam EllettLead Data Scientist, Pepperstone
  • "With data teams spanning several business functions, we didn't just need a way to standardize development. We needed a way for those processes to be easily understood by everyone—seasoned engineers, new analysts, the CFO... everyone."

    Jared StoutHead of Data Management, Sunrun
