Omni leverages Claude AI to power its analytics platform, transforming natural language queries into precise SQL through a robust semantic layer. The engineering team utilizes Claude Code to accelerate development, maintaining high velocity by embedding context directly into data definitions. The company’s AI agent, "Blobby," evolved from a simple question-answer tool into a sophisticated agentic system capable of complex reasoning and error recovery. By shifting from proprietary JSON-based query generation to direct SQL parsing, the system achieved greater efficiency and reliability. Continuous improvement relies on an internal evaluation system and deep trace analysis—termed "blobotomies"—to identify and resolve unpredictable agent behaviors. This approach ensures that the platform provides consistent, accurate insights, effectively bridging the gap between business terminology and raw database structures.
