Unified incident list
Stale tables, failed models/tests, and cost spikes share one prioritized queue you can scan in under a minute.
Use case · Reliability
AI ranks stale tables, failed dbt runs, and cost spikes into one Fix-first queue.
The problem
Freshness, dbt, and cost each fire in different channels. Nobody knows what to fix first. The morning standup becomes archaeology instead of decisions.
The outcome
VectorData’s AI Watchdog ranks incidents by blast radius, groups related failures, and hands you a short Fix-first list — metadata only, no warehouse row reads.
1 queue
Freshness · dbt · cost in one place
Root cause
Grouped — not a page storm
Metadata
INFORMATION_SCHEMA + job stats + artifacts
Stale tables, failed models/tests, and cost spikes share one prioritized queue you can scan in under a minute.
Blast radius and severity decide order — leadership KPIs before unused staging tables.
Warning vs critical states you can explain in standup without opening five tools.
Walk the broken-run scenario in /app with sample warehouse metadata.
