Universal Data: Generate
Myriade connects to your warehouse read-only and lets AI agents document, validate, and answer questions on messy data in 48 hours.
If your warehouse is genuinely messy and your data team is the bottleneck, Myriade targets that exact ache: 48 hours to org-wide answers, with 150+ tables documented in under a week and 90% auto-validated at Jules as the receipt. The unlimited free Viewers seat is the real pricing trick — business stakeholders browse catalog, definitions and results without consuming a seat, and Enterprise opens MCP querying to the whole company at no extra cost. The catch is the bill: annual commitment only,

Skip Myriade if your team uses month-to-month billing, has no SQL warehouse or database to connect, or needs to write data back into source systems rather than only query them read-only.
Member seats are billed on top of the platform fee — €39/member/mo on Starter (billed annually) and €49/member/mo on Team (billed annually) — so adding analysts to a growing team raises the monthly bill even if platform
Myriade's pricing fits mid-size data teams that already run a warehouse and can commit annually. Starter (€490/mo + €39/member/mo billed annually) suits a first project on one source with up to 10 members; Team (€790/mo + €49/member/mo billed annually) suits a real data function on up to three sources and 50 members. It is more expensive than generic SQL copilots but competes with warehouse-native AI and dedicated catalog tools that require maintaining semantic models. Enterprise is custom.

About Universal Data: Generate
Myriade is an AI analytics layer that attaches to the warehouse you already run — read-only — and spends its first two days teaching itself what's in there. By hour 4 its agents have mapped every table, join and metric and flagged zombie tables; by hour 24 your data team has reviewed the inference and settled only the ambiguous cases (~90% of the catalog ends up auto-documented); by hour 48 business users are asking questions in plain language and getting answers with the SQL and source attached. No semantic layer to write upfront, no migration, no consultants. The build side is where the money goes. Members — analysts, finance controllers, data engineers — get unlimited Chat and Deep Analysis, unlimited MCP access from their existing AI assistant, dbt and MetricFlow transformation PRs (20/mo on Starter, 100/mo on Team, unlimited fair use on Enterprise), warehouse cost reporting, and 360° audits at rising frequency. Viewers are free and unlimited on every plan, and on Enterprise anyone company-wide can query governed data from Claude, Copilot or Gemini at no extra seat cost. Active Monitoring adds up to 50 controls on Team, more than 50 on Enterprise. Plans run on published annual pricing: Starter at €490/mo plus €39 per member, Team at €790/mo plus €49 per member, Enterprise quoted. Starter covers one connected source and a 200-table scan; Team three sources and 1,000 tables; Enterprise 10+ sources and 1,000+ tables. Connections reach Snowflake, BigQuery, Databricks, Redshift, Fabric, Oracle, PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB and MotherDuck — and Myriade answers its own "no warehouse" objection by connecting straight to Oracle, Postgres or MySQL read-only. Against Snowflake and Databricks' built-in AI, the pitch is that their assistants see one platform and lean on semantic models your team maintains by hand — Myriade builds that context across all your sources automatically. Databricks Genie, dbt's semantic layer and catalog tools, and standalone NL-to-SQL layers are
Behind the Verdict
We'd reach for Myriade when the warehouse exists but the documentation doesn't. The 48-hour arc — connect at 0, agent discovery at 4, human validation at 24, analytics at 48 — is the whole product thesis, and it's backed by a named customer result rather than a brochure: Jules documented 150+ tables in under a week with 90% auto-validated. Ekip reports 5-6x faster than searching by hand and 2-minute answer times. Those are concrete enough to weigh against your own baseline.The architecturally interesting bet is MCP. Members query governed data from Claude, Copilot or Gemini, and on Enterprise the whole company can — unlimited, no extra seat cost. If your org already lives in one of those assistants, Myriade becomes the governed context layer behind it rather than another dashboard nobody opens. That's a different wedge than a standalone BI tool. Starter's 1 source, 200-table scan, 20 PRs/mo and one quarterly audit is fine for a first project on one warehouse; it's not fine for a five-source estate. The €490-€790/mo platform fee also means the math gets ugly below roughly five members — a three-person team pays €607/mo on Starter before anything scales. Extra PR packs run €190 per 50.Pass if you need write-back. Myriade is read-only by design and won't mutate source systems. Pass too if your reporting data lives in CSVs or a spreadsheet rather than a SQL database — though the Oracle, Postgres and MySQL connectors mean you don't strictly need a warehouse yet.Closest alternative depends on your stack. If you're Snowflake or Databricks native, their bundled AI is already paid for, but their assistants see one platform and want semantic models your team writes and maintains. Databricks Genie and

Real-world workflow fit
Concrete scenarios for the personas Universal Data: Generate actually fits — and what changes day-one when you adopt it.
Connect Snowflake read-only, let Myriade's agents discover tables, then review and approve the 90% of documentation the AI drafts before opening it to business users.
Outcome: 150+ tables documented in under a week with 90% auto-validated, replacing months of manual cataloging.
Ask 'What was our margin by product category this quarter?' in natural language, then check the exploration log to see which tables and columns were used.
Outcome: Sourced answer in minutes with lineage shown, instead of waiting on the data team for a report.
Run Myriade's warehouse cost report and zombie table detection to find unused tables and expensive query patterns.
Outcome: Deprecate zombie tables and optimize query patterns, with continuous cost alerts on Enterprise.
Use Cases
- Automate documentation for a 600-table warehouse in under a week.
- Ask natural language questions like 'What was our margin by product category this quarter?'.
- Identify and prioritize data quality issues across all tables.
- Optimize warehouse costs by analyzing query patterns and finding unused tables.
- Enable business teams to get trusted answers without data team bottlenecks.
- Deprecate zombie tables that are no longer used downstream.
- Let business users query governed company data from Claude, Copilot, or Gemini via MCP.
Models Under the Hood
as of 2026-10-17
Limitations
- Myriade requires a supported data warehouse (Snowflake, BigQuery, PostgreSQL, etc.) plus admin permissions to create service accounts and grant access, with read access to INFORMATION_SCHEMA and the schemas/tables to analyze; a dedicated read-only account is recommended.
- Plans are billed annually, with viewer seats free and per-member pricing on top of the platform fee.
- Starter is capped at 1 source, 200 scanned tables, and 1 quarterly audit; Team caps at 3 sources and 1,000 scanned tables.
- Member seats run €39/member/mo on Starter and €49/member/mo on Team, so headcount drives cost.
- Enterprise offers unlimited company-wide querying from Claude, Copilot, or Gemini at no extra seat cost.

Where the pricing makes sense
The company stage and team size where Universal Data: Generate's pricing actually pencils out — and where peers do it cheaper.
Myriade's pricing fits mid-size data teams that already run a warehouse and can commit annually. Starter (€490/mo + €39/member/mo billed annually) suits a first project on one source with up to 10 members; Team (€790/mo + €49/member/mo billed annually) suits a real data function on up to three sources and 50 members. It is more expensive than generic SQL copilots but competes with warehouse-native AI and dedicated catalog tools that require maintaining semantic models. Enterprise is custom.
Setup time & first value
How long it actually takes to get something useful out of Universal Data: Generate — broken out by persona, not the marketing-page minute.
Data engineer: 5–10 minutes to connect a warehouse read-only with a dedicated service account, then Myriade's autonomous discovery runs by hour four and analytics are live by hour 48. Business user: no setup — you ask questions in the Myriade UI or from Claude, Copilot, or Gemini via MCP (Enterprise). Finance or operations viewer: instant, since viewers are free and unlimited and just browse the
Switching to or from Universal Data: Generate
How to bring data in from common predecessors and how to get it back out — written for the switcher, not the buyer.
- →From manual documentation (spreadsheets or wikis): connect the warehouse and let Myriade's agents draft the catalog automatically, with your team approving 90% of entries.
- →From an existing data catalog: keep it — Myriade exports its documentation to your catalog rather than forcing a replacement.
- →From a semantic-layer tool: Myriade builds context automatically across sources at a fixed price, without semantic models your team must write and maintain.
- →From warehouse-native AI (Snowflake, Databricks): Myriade builds cross-source context automatically so the same governed context serves your analysts and your LLM assistant.
- ↗To a warehouse-native AI tool: export Myriade's documentation to your existing catalog and lose the cross-source context layer.
- ↗To a dedicated catalog only: keep your catalog, but lose the natural-language analytics and MCP access to AI assistants.
- ↗To manual methods: Myriade exports documentation, so you can revert to spreadsheets and wikis with the catalog as a starting point.
