Fabi.ai May Product Updates

An entirely new way to build and automate data analysis workflows

We’re witnessing a shift in the way data teams operate. In the past data teams would spend most of their energy cranking out reports, leaving it up to the viewer to extract insights. Now data teams are bringing insights to their stakeholders in their favorite workspaces with AI playing a key role in generating insights.

In the previous product updates we introduced the new workflow canvas view and Push to Slack and Send Email cells. In this release, we’re introducing ways to insert AI as part of your automated workflow along with improvements to the workflow canvas.

✨ AI summarization and enrichment cells

AI has been transformative for code generation for data analysis, but what about actually using LLMs as a step in the analysis process?

For example, AI is perfectly suited for:

  • Sentiment analysis

  • Intent categorization

  • Summarizing data

To this end, we’ve introduced two new AI cells:

  1. AI enrichment cells: You can pass a structured dataset to the AI with a prompt that will apply to a designated field. If you have a messy text field, this cell can quickly make sense of it and produce a new field in that table, with no risk of hallucination on the original data.

  2. AI summarization cells: Want to send a daily executive summary of your data to Slack or email? No problem, give the AI summarization cell your data with a prompt and then use that output to send the summary off to your stakeholders.

AI cells allow you to embed AI as part of your workflow

🔑 Secret manager (Vault)

Secrets secrets are no fun, when they’re shared with everyone.

If you’re using Fabi to automate workflows and dashboards involving third-party applications that require authentication, it’s really important to handle those secrets with care. We’ve introduced a Secret Manager for you to securely store those secrets and keep them safe.

Important note: At this time, secrets stored in Fabi are available for use by any Builder. We plan to introduce personal secret management. Please contact us if you would like us to consider prioritizing this work.

😍 Improvements to workflow canvas

The workflow canvas view is a fantastic way to see how everything connects together in your analysis. We spent some time making the user experience even more delightful.

  • Scrolling around and zooming in and out is much easier (to zoom in click Cmd + and scroll with two fingers)

  • It’s easier to highlight lines of code without moving the cell placement

  • The list of variables and Python DataFrames produced by each cell are listed under the cell

You can see the workflow view (and the new AI cells!) in action in this video.

🎁 Other goodies

But wait, there’s more!

  • Claude 4 is now available (for paying customers)

  • Easier access “Run” button on the left hand side of any Smartbook or Workflow

  • You can copy/paste a table up to 200 records by right clicking on the table
