With Altimate AI’s DataMates, data teams can accelerate their work by automating tasks like data documentation, testing, data transformations, and performance improvements.

Generative AI startup in the data space, Altimate AI has introduced DataMates, AI teammates that work as virtual teammates with data teams. These AI teammates, collections of AI agents, have been designed to help teams accelerate their work by automating tasks like data documentation, testing, data transformations, and performance improvements.
DataMates will be available as part of Altimate AI’s DataPilot platform and is used every day by thousands of data and analytics engineers.
CEO and co-founder of Altimate AI, Pradnesh Patil, said, “We’re ushering in the era of AI teammates for data teams, equipped with deep context from the company’s data stack. Data and analytics engineers can outsource some key tasks to them to expedite data development. This new paradigm is dramatically accelerating data project delivery for our customers.”
Accelerating data work with AI requires two components.
- One is bringing the correct context from the whole data stack to the AI layer.
- Second is making the acceleration services available right in data teams’ tools.
The DataPilot platform from Altimate AI integrates the testing, transformation, and data warehouse levels of the business’s data stack, providing DataMates with relevant insight. As these AI agents are integrated into tools like VS Code, CLI, Git, and Slack, data teams can easily access their services for daily tasks.
With over 200,000 downloads of the free offering, Altimate AI has been gaining a lot of traction. dbt Labs, a leading player in data transformation, recently announced a product partnership to enhance the DataPilot platform’s support for dbt Coud.
“AI is revolutionizing how enterprise teams work, and data teams in every company have an ever-growing pipeline of projects but a shortage of skilled people. Our investment was driven by the founders’ impressive track record in developing successful enterprise products, coupled with their distribution approach of integrating with tools used by data teams daily,” John Chambers, Chairman Emeritus of Cisco and founder and CEO of JC2 Ventures said.
“This approach has paved the way for faster product feedback and sales cycles for Altimate AI.”
Altimate AI has received investment from John Chambers’ JC2 Ventures and Surface Ventures. In the near future, the company plans to offer an increasing number of DataMates that address every stage of the data lifecycle.
