Databench by Alkera

Databench is an open-source workspace from Alkera AI, Inc. in which data teams and AI agents work in the same notebooks and conversation, run code on remote compute and keep a trace of which code and data produced each result. Alkera’s wider platform, as its site describes it, adds a shared knowledge base, column-level lineage, automated maintenance of data pipelines and more than 25 integrations with data tools. The Product Hunt page describes the company as backed by Y Combinator; its location is not stated. The site offers a free tier and a demo for enterprise customers but publishes no paid prices. Databench reached Product Hunt’s daily leaderboard on 7 October 2026. Buyers should check the repository’s licence before building on it, where agent-run code executes and what it can reach, and how lineage is captured when work moves outside the workspace.
