What Carly can do with Hex

Trigger notebook runs remotely

Email or text Carly to run any Hex notebook on demand. She kicks off the run and reports back when it completes — no need to open the workspace to hit the run button.

Pull query results by email

Ask Carly for the latest output from a Hex project and she sends you the results. Great for pulling fresh numbers before a meeting without logging into Hex.

Check scheduled report status

Ask Carly if your scheduled Hex reports ran successfully. She checks the run history and tells you what completed, what failed, and when it last ran.

Share outputs with stakeholders

Tell Carly to run a Hex notebook and send the results to a colleague. She handles the run and forwards the output — perfect for stakeholders who don't have Hex access.

Why data teams are using AI to manage Hex

Hex gives data teams a powerful workspace for SQL, Python, and no-code analysis — but the work doesn't end when the notebook is built. You're constantly re-running analyses, checking if scheduled reports completed, pulling fresh numbers for stakeholders, and sharing outputs with people who don't have Hex access. Those small tasks add up.

AI tools for Hex should handle the repetitive parts of the data workflow. Instead of opening Hex to manually trigger a notebook run or check if last night's scheduled report went through, you should be able to fire off a message and get the answer. The analysis is already built — the bottleneck is the last mile of running it and getting results to the right people.

How Carly works as your AI Hex assistant

Carly connects to your Hex workspace through the API. Once connected, you manage your data workflows over email or text — like having an analyst on your team who can trigger any notebook and send you the results.

Need fresh numbers for a board deck? Email Carly to run your revenue notebook in Hex and send you the output. Wondering if last night's churn report completed? Ask Carly and she checks the run status. Stakeholder asking for customer data you've already built a query for? Tell Carly which Hex project to run and who to send the results to.

Because Carly connects to 200+ tools, she can tie your Hex outputs into broader workflows. She can pull results from a Hex notebook and reference them alongside data from your CRM, or check your calendar to see if you have a meeting coming up that needs fresh analytics.

Who uses Carly with Hex

Data analysts and analytics engineers who have built notebooks in Hex and need a faster way to run them and distribute results. Data team leads who want to check on scheduled runs without logging in. Business stakeholders who need fresh numbers from existing Hex projects but don't want to navigate the workspace themselves. If your team has already built the analysis in Hex, Carly makes sure the results get where they need to go.
