Your colleague can check your pipeline without reading SQL.
Describe it in words or draw it. Then read it back, step by step, with real data.
“transform this incoming file and show me only unique records” — you
the readbackEvery node’s real rows are one click away, and every wire carries its count. When rows disappear, the node that dropped them says so — in numbers, in place.
- Legible by construction
- A per-step split with real data at each step. No black box between source and output — and the canvas compiles to SQL you can read and edit.
- AI you can check
- Chat authors; the canvas is the readback; an approval gate stands between a draft and production. “AI authors, you approve” is a gate here, not a slogan.
- Grow, don’t rewrite
- Start with a CSV. When a table matters enough to need identity, history and provenance, promote it and inherit the machinery instead of hand-rolling SCD2 again.
