Where we're different
Transparency and control over autonomy
Instead of changes happening automatically, each fix is a specific, allowlisted statement you can read and approve before it runs. Teams that need an audit trail and change-management sign-off tend to prefer this. If hands-off automation is your priority, that's a genuine philosophical difference worth weighing.
Breadth beyond warehouses
Warehouse tuning is one family of our detectors — we also cover query waste, storage bloat, AI/Cortex spend, and governance gaps, each ranked in dollars.
No data egress
Running as a Native App with a single read privilege keeps your usage data inside Snowflake. See Security & Architecture.
When Keebo might fit better
If your goal is fully autonomous, continuous warehouse tuning with minimal human involvement, evaluate Keebo directly. The fairest test for either tool is to run it against your own account and compare the results — and the trust story — yourself.
