Myriade

Myriade reverse-engineers your warehouse into a governed context layer for reliable AI analytics on messy data.

72/100Safe BetFrom €190 per pack of 50Paid

Myriade bets you'd rather approve a catalog than build one, and the 48-hour curve is the whole pitch. The per-member model is the catch: €39 on Starter and €49 on Team on top of the base fee means a 20-person analytics org clears €1,400/mo before Enterprise. If your bottleneck is undocumented tables and a backlogged data team, that math can work. If you need streaming analytics or a turnkey dashboard, it won't.

Skip it if

Skip Myriade if you need SAML, SCIM and audit logs but can't move to the custom-priced Enterprise tier, or if nobody on your team can create a read-only service account in the warehouse.

The 30-second take
Biggest gripe

Members are billed per head on top of the platform fee — €39/member on Starter and €49/member on Team, both billed annually ex VAT — so a 20-person analytics org adds roughly €800–€980/mo before the platform fee.

Price reality

Myriade starts at €490/mo billed annually plus €39/member on Starter and €790/mo plus €49/member on Team, both billed annually ex VAT, with free unlimited viewers — so 5 builders run roughly €685–€1,035/mo. That undercuts a bespoke semantic-layer build or a consulting engagement, but sits above self-serve BI tools. Warehouse-native AI from Snowflake and Databricks is bundled into your compute contract; Myriade's counter is cross-source context at a fixed price. Security-gated buyers need Enterprise, priced on

About Myriade

PaidIntermediateAPI availableWeb

Myriade connects read-only to the warehouses you already run — Snowflake, BigQuery, Databricks, PostgreSQL, Oracle, MySQL, MongoDB, Redshift and Fabric — and has AI agents map every table, join and metric, sample the data, and learn how it is actually queried. Instead of hand-modelling a semantic layer first, you point it at what exists. When a definition is ambiguous, the agent asks your data team rather than guessing. The vendor's stated timeline runs from connection to answers in 48 hours: Hour 0 connect, Hour 4 discover, Hour 24 validate, Hour 48 analyse. It reports roughly 90% of tables auto-validated in a first pass and flags zombie staging tables as safe to deprecate. There are two doors into the same governed layer. Data teams get agents for search, quality review, SQL optimisation, deep analysis, and dbt and MetricFlow transformations delivered as pull requests. Business users ask in plain language and get answers with the executed SQL, an exploration log of which tables and columns the agent examined, quality notes and cited sources — inside the data team's rules rather than in a shadow BI tool. Teams can also query through MCP from Claude, Copilot or Gemini; on Enterprise that becomes company-wide querying at no extra seat cost. Self-hosting is available on every plan. Pricing is deliberately per-builder: €490/mo billed annually plus €39 per member on Starter, €790/mo plus €49 per member on Team, and custom Enterprise with 10+ sources, weekly audits, SAML/SCIM and BYOK. Viewers — anyone who only browses the catalog, definitions and results — are free and unlimited on every tier, and Myriade pitches each plan with AI capacity included as fair use rather than a token meter. Against warehouse-native AI from Snowflake and Databricks, the argument is breadth and ownership: those tools see one platform and expect semantic models your team maintains, while Myriade builds context across sources and lets you export it to an existing catalog. It competes less

Behind the Verdict

Pick Myriade when the real blocker is nobody knows what is in the warehouse. The reverse-engineering loop — agents map tables, flag zombie staging tables, route only the ambiguous cases to humans, then write dbt and MetricFlow PRs — targets the specific misery of a data team drowning in documentation requests. The 150-tables-in-under-a-week datapoint from its own testimonial is the number to test against your own schema in the pilot. Where it bites is the seat arithmetic. You pay for builders, not viewers, which sounds generous until you count builders. Twenty analysts at €49 per member on Team is roughly €1,770/mo on top of nothing — the base is included in that figure — but it still lands north of most teams' entire BI budget, and that is before you want SAML, SCIM and audit logs, which sit behind the custom Enterprise tier. We'd reach for this in mid-market and enterprise shops with a genuinely untidy legacy stack, or teams already living in Claude, Copilot or Gemini who want governed MCP access rather than another tab. The self-hosting and EU cloud option on every plan matters for regulated buyers. Pass if your problem is dashboards, not context. A warehouse-native AI assistant from Snowflake or Databricks may be cheaper if you are single-platform and already have a maintained semantic model — Myriade's own FAQ concedes that difference, arguing only that those tools need models your team must write. If you have no warehouse at all, it still connects read-only to Oracle, PostgreSQL and MySQL, so that objection is weaker than it looks. One caution: the 48-hour promise is a vendor timeline. Treat it as a pilot target with someone senior on the data team available for the Hour 24 validation step, not as a guaranteed outcome. And budget for the PR packs at €190 per

Real-world workflow fit

Concrete scenarios for the personas Myriade actually fits — and what changes day-one when you adopt it.

Head of Data at a 200-person retailer

Creates a read-only Snowflake service account, connects Myriade in Hour 0, and lets agents map tables, joins and metrics through Hour 4. At Hour 24 the team reviews the agent's inferences and settles only the ambiguous definitions; by Hour 48 marketers are asking questions in plain language against certified metrics.

Outcome: A documented catalog and governed self-serve analytics without a multi-month modelling project, with zombie staging tables flagged for deprecation along the way.

Business analyst in finance

Asks Myriade in natural language for margin by product category. The answer arrives with the executed SQL, an exploration log of the tables and columns the agent checked, quality notes on assumptions, and a report that then refreshes itself weekly.

Outcome: An answer they can defend in a review rather than a black-box number, without opening a ticket with the data team or building a shadow spreadsheet.

Data engineer maintaining definitions

Reviews the dbt and MetricFlow transformations the agent proposes as pull requests, approving or amending them the same way as any code change, and monitors the 50 active controls watching for quality drift between audits.

Outcome: Glossary and metric changes land through normal code review instead of ad-hoc edits, and quality regressions surface before someone downstream notices.

Use Cases

Limitations

  • Myriade connects read-only to your warehouse via a dedicated service account needing INFORMATION_SCHEMA and schema/table read privileges, so setup depends on admin permissions and typically takes 5-10 minutes.
  • Governance and security features (domains/roles/access control, SAML, SCIM, audit logs) are Enterprise-only, while Starter and Team include team roles.
  • Members are billed per head on top of the platform fee (€39/mo Starter, €49/mo Team, billed annually) with sources and catalog size capped on lower tiers (1 source / 200 tables on Starter, 3 sources / 1,000 tables on Team), and transformation PRs are metered (20/mo Starter, 100/mo Team).
  • Warehouse compute depends on your own sizing as agents run many SQL statements.

Plans compared

For each published Myriade tier: who it actually fits, and what it adds vs. the previous tier. Cross-reference the cost calculator above for projected annual outlay.

Starter

€490/mo + €39/member (billed annually, ex VAT)

Ideal for

First data projects and single-warehouse teams of up to 10 builders who need a documented catalog and governed plain-language querying before committing to a wider rollout.

What this tier adds

Starting tier: 1 source, 200-table catalog scan, 20 transformation PRs/mo, quarterly 360° audit, quarterly FinOps reports, up to 10 members.

Team

€790/mo + €49/member (billed annually, ex VAT)

Ideal for

An established data team running two or three sources across up to 50 builders, where monthly audits and continuous quality monitoring matter more than the entry price.

What this tier adds

Adds 3 sources and a 1,000-table scan over Starter, plus 100 PRs/mo, active monitoring up to 50 controls, monthly 360° audits and monthly FinOps reports.

Enterprise

Custom

Ideal for

Whole-company deployments with 10+ sources, security review requirements (SAML, SCIM, audit logs), and business users asking Myriade questions from Claude, Copilot or Gemini.

What this tier adds

Adds unlimited members, 10+ sources, 1,000+ tables, 50+ monitoring controls, weekly and on-demand audits, continuous FinOps alerts, domains/roles, SAML + SCIM + audit logs, VPC and BYOK — with company-wide assistant access at no extra seat cost.

Extra PRs Pack

€190 per pack of 50

Ideal for

Starter and Team customers whose transformation backlog outruns their monthly PR allowance during a migration or a large modelling push.

What this tier adds

Transactional add-on rather than a tier: 50 additional dbt / MetricFlow transformation PRs for €190, purchasable on demand.

Hidden costs & gotchas

What the public pricing page doesn't put in bold. Captured from pricing-page footnotes, contract terms, and recurring complaints.

  • Members are billed per head on top of the platform fee — €39/member on Starter and €49/member on Team, both billed annually ex VAT — so a 20-person analytics org adds roughly €800–€980/mo before the platform fee.
  • Transformation PRs are metered at 20/mo on Starter and 100/mo on Team; past that you buy a pack of 50 for €190 rather than paying per PR.
  • Going beyond one source on Starter or three on Team forces a plan upgrade — sources are not add-on purchasable on entry tiers.
  • The catalog scan is capped at 200 tables on Starter and 1,000 on Team, so a large warehouse can hit the ceiling before your team has finished reviewing the first pass.
  • SAML, SCIM, audit logs and domain/role access controls are Enterprise-only, meaning the compliance tooling that most security reviews require sits behind custom pricing.
  • 360° audits run quarterly on Starter and monthly on Team; weekly and on-demand audits require Enterprise.

Where the pricing makes sense

The company stage and team size where Myriade's pricing actually pencils out — and where peers do it cheaper.

Myriade starts at €490/mo billed annually plus €39/member on Starter and €790/mo plus €49/member on Team, both billed annually ex VAT, with free unlimited viewers — so 5 builders run roughly €685–€1,035/mo. That undercuts a bespoke semantic-layer build or a consulting engagement, but sits above self-serve BI tools. Warehouse-native AI from Snowflake and Databricks is bundled into your compute contract; Myriade's counter is cross-source context at a fixed price. Security-gated buyers need Enterprise, priced on

Switching to or from Myriade

How to bring data in from common predecessors and how to get it back out — written for the switcher, not the buyer.

Migrating in
  • →From a manually maintained data catalog: connect read-only, let agents generate the documentation, then approve it — the vendor states results export to your existing catalog, so you can keep it or replace it later.
  • →From a hand-built semantic layer: Myriade writes dbt and MetricFlow transformations as PRs against your existing repo rather than asking you to rebuild definitions elsewhere.
  • →From manual SQL exploration: connect one source, run your first question, and compare the agent's exploration log and SQL against your own findings before broadening access.
  • →From no warehouse at all: Myriade connects directly to Oracle, PostgreSQL and MySQL read-only, and the vendor states everything moves with you if you build a warehouse later.
Migrating out
  • ↗To a self-hosted deployment: every plan supports self-hosting, so you can move off the EU cloud without changing tier.
  • ↗To your existing catalog: documentation and certifications export, so the definitions you approved do not have to be retyped.
  • ↗To another warehouse: Myriade connects read-only across ten platforms, so changing the underlying engine does not require rebuilding the context layer.
  • ↗To no renewal: revoke access by disabling or deleting the service account in your warehouse, which cuts off all agent access immediately.
