The Sharing Gap

Data work has become increasingly complex and vital in organizations, but communication and collaboration among data teams have not kept pace with advancements in technology. Despite improvements in data extraction, transformation, quality, and storage, sharing workflows remain clunky and outdated. Static slide decks, cluttered share drives, and pasting updated charts into chat windows are still common practices. The transition from spreadsheets to code-based workflows has not been fully embraced due to the lack of universal understanding and compatibility with various file formats like .xls and .ipynb. This "sharing gap" exists across collaboration, publishing, and discovery workflows. Hex is a platform that aims to address these issues by making sharing easier, more powerful, and enjoyable for data teams.
