your Metabase
Get a full audit of your Metabase in 2 minutes. Then let our fractional data team, powered by the MetaLens platform, ship the governance, dashboards, and metric trees your CEO actually needs, in days not quarters.
Real results from a production Metabase with 1,798 saved questions, 69 dashboards, and 23 contributors.
How Sniffspot's fractional CDO cleaned up 1,798 Metabase questions in 2 hours
Sniffspot is a marketplace that lets dog owners book private spots to exercise their dogs, ~$6M GMV across 2.1M reservations. No in-house data team. When Nick Valiotti joined as fractional CDO, the Metabase had 1,798 saved questions across 5 databases, 69 dashboards, and 23 contributors. No governance, no docs, no way to find anything. MetaLens ran a full X-Ray in 90 seconds, surfaced 94 duplicate groups and 901 stale queries, and the Builder and Chat agents rebuilt the dashboards leadership actually needed, all inside the first engagement week.
"Gave me the full audit I would've built as a fractional CDO in 2 weeks, in 90 seconds. Then the Builder Agent actually created the dashboards I would have recommended."
The MetaLens Sprint: fractional CDO, delivered in 2 weeks
The platform alone replaces a data analyst. The Sprint replaces 3 months of consulting. We come in as your fractional data team, run the full MetaLens platform against your stack, and ship governance, metric trees, and the first 3 production dashboards in 10 working days.
Audit + Align
Full X-Ray across every Metabase instance. Ownership map, duplicate cleanup plan, metric tree aligned to your North Star. You end the week with a governance backlog a board can read.
Build + Ship
Builder Agent drafts the top 3 dashboards your execs have been asking for. Chat Agent rewrites broken queries. Catalog and Search go live for the whole team.
Platform + Office Hours
MetaLens stays running after we leave. Your team gets the same 8 agents that powered the Sprint, plus monthly office hours with the fractional CDO team.
Starting from $12,000 for the 2-week Sprint. Platform subscription included for the first 3 months. Limited to 2 Sprint engagements per month, run by Nick Valiotti (Sniffspot Fractional CDO).
The pipeline that powers the Sprint
Each agent handles one link in the chain: connect, find problems, surface context, act, verify. Together they collapse a 3-month CDO engagement into a 10-day Sprint, or run on autopilot once we're gone.
X-Ray
Full instance audit in 2 minutes. Health score, duplicates, broken queries, ERD.
Docs
Auto-generated data dictionary. Business context, glossary, relationships.
Catalog
Browse every question and dashboard. Filter by creator, freshness, views. Spot stale content fast.
Search
Vector-powered semantic search. Find queries by meaning, not keywords.
Chat
NL to SQL, plus cleanup co-pilot. Ask 'which duplicates should I merge first?' and get a ranked fix plan.
Builder
Describe a dashboard, AI generates SQL, you verify, then deploy back to Metabase.
Metric Tree
Hierarchical graph from North Star to leaf metrics. Edit, share, export.
Gap
Find missing dashboards by C-level role. Catches reporting blind spots.
Review
Card ID or raw SQL, AI code review with score 1-10, issues, optimization suggestions, rewritten query.
Three new agents that make MetaLens a platform
Catalog, semantic search, and metric trees turn an audit tool into a full analytics governance system. Live for every plan.
Browse everything
Every question and dashboard with views, creator, last-used date, and freshness status. Filter by stale to find content that should be archived.
- Status badges: active / infrequent / stale
- Filter by creator, collection, freshness
- Sort by views, last used, created
Find by meaning
Vector-powered semantic search across all questions and dashboards. Type "subscription churn" and find queries even if they're named differently.
- OpenAI embeddings + pgvector
- GUI builder queries compiled to SQL
- Built into AI Chat as context
Strategy view
AI-generated hierarchical graph from your North Star down through drivers to leaf metrics. Editable, versioned, shareable to anyone with a public link.
- 40-60 metrics across 6-9 categories
- ReactFlow viewer with drag and edit
- Public share links for stakeholders
