Keep the thread from source to decision.
Ingest, transform, model, publish and analyse in one workspace. Your lineage follows the data, so the next person can follow it too.
Build reliable data products, explore ideas, and turn analysis into action. One connected workspace, right on your desktop.
Your work, connected.
Explore the workspace
Actual QDP interface. Illustrative data from the built-in sample workspace.
A query in one place. A spreadsheet in another. Definitions somewhere else. QDP brings the work and its context together.
Ingest, transform, model, publish and analyse in one workspace. Your lineage follows the data, so the next person can follow it too.
Embedded DuckDB handles analytical work on your machine. Explore and build without first provisioning a cloud warehouse.
Turn a one-off result into a documented, versioned data product with quality checks and outputs others can depend on.
Start with a file. Connect a database. Bring a question.
There’s
room to grow from there.
Load files, connect databases or pull from APIs. Choose snapshots, live links or repeatable ingestions.
Your sources. One workspace.Work in SQL, Python or visual steps. Build pipelines and define shared measures and relationships.
Use the way you think.Attach quality checks, document meaning and publish immutable Parquet contracts with their own version history.
An output with a promise.Build dashboards, explore in notebooks, create data apps or let a scoped agent help with the next task.
From analysis to action.Go deeper as the work demands it. The tools share the same workspace, so each step adds context to the next.
Build with QDP
Quick Data.
Quick Governance.
Quick BI. Quick Apps.
Quick
Agents.
CSV and Excel files, relational databases, NoSQL sources and HTTP APIs. Bring data in once or make the load repeatable.
Python is installed separately. Scheduled and background work needs the host machine and QDP runtime running.
QDP writes dbt artefacts into your project; dbt and MetricFlow are external tools and are not run by QDP.
The local workspace owner remains in control. Policies do not create a security boundary against that owner.
Python notebooks and model training need your separately installed Python and the relevant packages.
These are QDP workspace apps. Publishing an app does not create a publicly hosted website.
Bring your own model and provider access. Agent requests and tool results may be sent to your chosen AI provider.
Cloud sharing, shared repositories and deployment require their respective services and credentials. Team Catalogue sharing sends metadata, not table rows or Parquet files.
QDP’s analytical warehouse lives on your desktop. Start small, keep the context close, and connect to external tools when your work needs them.
No cloud warehouse required for the core workflow.
Open Parquet and JSON-LD outputs, plus dbt artefacts.
Optional Python, external databases and your choice of
AI.
Analysts, analytics engineers and data teams who need to turn raw inputs into useful, reusable outputs. Start with a file and a query, then add pipelines, shared definitions, quality checks, dashboards and apps as the work grows.
Not for every task. QDP has visual transformations, pipeline canvases, dashboard builders and data apps. SQL and Python remain available when you need more control. Python itself is installed separately.
Your local warehouse and analytical processing stay on your machine. QDP requires an account and an active licence, checks that licence online and sends anonymised usage counts and app/OS metadata. It supports a limited offline grace period, not permanently disconnected use.
External sources, cloud collaboration and deployments use the services you configure. If you enable AI, prompts and tool results may go to your chosen model provider. Metadata-only team sharing does not upload your table rows or Parquet files.
QDP gives you a connected place to develop and use data products, with open outputs that fit into a wider stack. Keep your databases and Python tools, generate dbt artefacts, or deploy published products to Microsoft Fabric. QDP does not bundle or run dbt or MetricFlow.
QDP is a desktop application, with releases for macOS Apple Silicon and Windows. Installer availability varies by release and architecture. The waitlist is for news about access and upcoming releases; joining does not create an account, grant a licence or promise an access date.
We save your email so we can contact you about QDP access and release news. No payment details and no workspace data are collected by this form. Read how we handle your waitlist details.
