The Missing Context Layer for AI-Ready Data Workflows

Sidecar’s MCP turns your data operations knowledge into a single, trusted metadata context layer that LLMs can query across your entire data platform

  • Give Cursor, Claude Code, and other tools the context they need

  • Stop hallucinations by fixing the context, not the model

  • Properly incorporate business context into your data platform metadata

Automated Data Catalog for Modern Data Teams

Sidecar automatically documents your data as it evolves, preserving institutional knowledge and giving LLMs a reliable, up-to-date view of your data platform.

  • Automatically document your data as it changes

  • Capture lineage, ownership, and definitions without manual work

  • Make your data discoverable without forcing your team to maintain a catalog

Don't miss that $50k mistake

Sidecar quietly maintains your data platform in the background; preventing technical debt, performance issues, and unnecessary compute costs before they become expensive problems.

  • Identify unused tables, stale models, deprecated fields, and abandoned dashboards, then safely deprecate or remove them with full context

  • Identify inefficient queries, bloated models, and runaway compute, and apply targeted optimizations as usage changes

  • Sidecar creates proactivity by continuously "tuning-up" your platform

In this new era, scrappy companies win. That means not hiring expensive employees unless you absolutely need them. With Sidecar, you can maintain a data stack without a data engineer, and that’s exactly what we did!

As a small data team, Sidecar has been crucial to ensure my team is able to focus on serving the business instead of managing our data platform health.

Engineers are expensive, yet too often stuck on repetitive but essential data operations. Sidecar data changes that by centralizing monitoring and automating solutions, offloading tedious work from engineers. Organizations save costs, strengthen governance and data quality, and free their engineers to focus on building what truly drives the business forward.

A major challenge at data teams I've led is bringing simplicity to the complexity of our data stack in order to make educated decisions on what to invest in. Sidecar brings that simplicity.

Inheriting a data stack almost always means inheriting tech debt. I used to dedicate entire sprint cycles to deprecating unused tables, creating table/field documentation, and adding data test coverage. With Sidecar, we can eliminate that tech debt quickly - and keep it from piling up again.

As a newly onboarded data engineer, Sidecar brought visibility into aspects of our complex data platform that would’ve taken me weeks to get up to speed with. It’s helped me immediately reduce both technical debt and spend.
