Hex now allows users to generate data apps using AI code generation, leveraging the platform's trusted data, context, and governance. This feature enables the creation of custom apps from prompts, with full control over UI elements, styles, and layouts. Apps are built on real Hex projects, inheriting security, permissioning, and governance from the platform, and can be maintained and updated directly within Hex.

Introducing Generative Data Apps

5/12/2026

Introduced Generative Data Apps, a feature that allows users to create data applications using AI code generation. This system integrates with Hex's existing context layers (Context Studio, semantic models, workspace guides, code repositories) to ensure data is governed, traceable, and secure. The generated apps are actual Hex projects, allowing for end-to-end analysis tracking, query lineage, and direct editing. Security is maintained through browser sandboxing and data access controls, preventing unauthorized data exfiltration.
