The open-source BI platform that turns your dbt project into a governed, version-controlled analytics engine.
The Headless BI platform for building AI-powered, scalable analytics-as-code.
GoodData is a leading Headless BI platform that has redefined the analytical landscape for 2026 by decoupling the semantic layer from the visualization frontend. Its technical architecture is built on a cloud-native foundation, specifically optimized for Kubernetes (GoodData.CN) and multi-cloud environments. By treating analytics as code, GoodData allows engineers to manage metrics, dashboards, and data models via Git repositories, ensuring full CI/CD integration. The platform's 2026 market position is solidified by its AI-first approach, utilizing 'FlexQuery'—a specialized service that leverages LLMs to translate natural language into complex MAQL (Multi-Dimensional Analytical Query Language) queries. This enables non-technical users to perform deep exploratory analysis without SQL knowledge. GoodData excels in embedded analytics scenarios, providing a robust React-based SDK that allows SaaS providers to ship high-performance, white-labeled dashboards. Its semantic layer ensures a single source of truth across all consumption points, whether they are internal BI tools, external customer portals, or AI agents consuming data through the API. With high-performance caching (AER) and native integrations with modern data warehouses like Snowflake and BigQuery, GoodData is the primary choice for organizations requiring scalable, governed, and programmable intelligence.
