Know what your change will break, across every platform, before it lands.
Callisto checks every pull request against lineage and runtime history from Snowflake, dbt, Airflow, Azure Data Factory and the rest of your estate.
Column-level lineage, no manual curation
Runtime metrics per job version
Answers in the PR thread, Slack, CLI or web UI
Read-only outside PR comments and suggested changes
Trusted by top global enterprises
Your agent is locally smart and globally blind.
Your agent sees the code in front of it. The context that makes the change safe lives elsewhere.

Three things your current stack cannot tell you
Your catalog knows what depends on what, not what it costs.
Callisto joins operational lineage to data lineage. Other tools tell you which models break. Callisto also tells you the new version scans four times the bytes.
Metrics come from warehouse and orchestrator run history for each job version. Callisto works from metadata, lineage and runtime behaviour only.
Every other tool compares your change against what’s already shipped.
Callisto compares proposed changes against each other. When every team ships faster, collisions grow faster than changes do, and no per-change analysis catches a collision, because each change is individually fine.
Your lineage stops where your warehouse does.
One column-level graph across dbt, Airflow, Azure Data Factory, Snowflake, S3 and Tableau. Edges are parsed from SQL or inferred from metadata, and unmapped namespaces show as gaps.
Built for three people
-
Data engineer / analytics engineer
Keeps them up at night
Being the person who renamed the column and broke a dashboard they have never heard of.
What Callisto gives them
The blast radius of the diff, in the PR: every downstream consumer, column-level, with upstream dependencies named. Ask “who uses this table” and get an answer in the thread.
-
Data platform lead / engineering manager
Keeps them up at night
Velocity up, production stability down, and no way to prove which change caused which incident.
What Callisto gives them
Change management that lives in review instead of in a meeting. A written record per pull request, runtime cost visible before merge, and a review bottleneck that does not grow with agent output.
-
Data architect / enterprise data lead
Keeps them up at night
Committing to a migration plan built on an incomplete map of the estate.
What Callisto gives them
Design-time and runtime lineage in one landscape, impact assessment per proposed change, point-in-time (ASOF) reads of how the estate looked, and an explicit list of what is not yet mapped.
Is this you?
Worth knowing before a call rather than after one.
Strong fit
Snowflake plus at least two other platforms
Something consuming data outside the warehouse: BI, reverse-ETL, notebooks, applications
Airflow, Dagster or similar orchestration
More than one team touching the same tables
A live migration, consolidation or AI-enablement programme
Engineers using AI coding tools on pipeline code
Not a fit
- Single-platform shops
- Small teams where one person genuinely holds the whole picture
- Organisations that prohibit AI tooling outright. A local-model story is coming.
- Anyone shopping for a data catalog, a business glossary or data quality monitoring. Those are different products and we do not have them.
Horizon works beautifully inside Snowflake. Your estate isn’t inside Snowflake.
Bundled lineage is design-time lineage. It describes how objects are declared to relate, inside one platform’s boundary, and stops short of how the jobs actually behaved on their last run.
Callisto reads design-time and runtime together, across dbt, Airflow, Azure Data Factory, Snowflake and Avro on S3, and tells you what the estate did rather than what it was declared to do.
