About

Bigeye is the data observability platform that helps teams measure, improve, and communicate data quality clearly at any scale. Every time a data quality issue causes an outage, the business loses trust in the data. Bigeye helps rebuild trust, starting with monitoring. Find missing and busted reporting data before executives see it in a dashboard. Get warned about issues in training data before models get retrained on it. Fix that uncomfortable feeling that most of the data is mostly right, most of the time. Pipeline job statuses don't tell the whole story. The best way to ensure data is fit for use, is to monitor the actual data. Tracking dataset-level freshness ensures pipelines are running on schedule, even when ETL orchestrators go down. Find out about changes to event names, region codes, product types, and other categorical data. Detect drops or spikes in row counts, nulls, and blank values to ensure everything is populating as expected.
