Slackbot v0, Field Picker Multi-Level Nesting, Tons of Perf, SQL Ai Field Suggestions, Google Drive in Blobby (25 Demos to Start 2026)
January 2, 2026
A first look at bringing Blobby to a native Slack app.
Now your field picker can nest as deeply as you like. For the organizers you can build custom group levels for navigating the field picker more easily.
We made filter suggestion better - prioritizing starts with, then spaces before search terms, and then any match.
A new UX to quickly navigate to any recent analyses or dashboards. Making it easier to find everything you've just been working on or looking at.
A first look at some new AI powered UX to extract modelable fields from your SQL. Can get out of your way when you don't need it, but also quickly provide a workflow to make sure you aren't ever doing the same work twice.
Blobby keeps getting smarter. Now you can authenticate yourself into Google Drive and search internal documents for relevant questions inside Blobby.
Bit of work to tune up the scheduler for linked tabs (recently released ability to duplicate-and-link tabs).
Now users can get alerted when dashboards are shared.
Work on new dashboard containers continues - bunch of work here around layout and organizing inside containers.
Some work here to make sure query killing is effective with filter suggestions, which can fire off several queries as the user types.
Now you can build a new branch from an existing branch to fork and test for more complex build outs.
New support for Oracle data
Now vis will properly account for order_by_fields, making sure months stay in order, tiers are respected, etc. Some improvements to make sure labels with stringified fields work properly - opening nice custom labeling patterns with IF() and TEXT()
Bit of work to make sure regressions label smoothly ;)
When loading vanity domains in Safari you can now skip the logo spinner screen entirely.
Subtle change to Safari embed to drop the Omni logo on cookie accept modal.
Bit of silent work to make folder navigation and finding the dashboard you need faster.
A quick add to bring the PDF and PNG export experience to workbooks from dashboards.
More behind the scenes perf work to improve query planning.
Bunch of work to improve performance and app stability, and a deep dive on the investigation.
We're adding a new guides section to docs for deep dives into full end-to-end workflows in Omni. Plus a quick look at how we write docs internally.
We continue to improve internal AI development workflows to make sure we can ship more product.
Bit of new internal tooling to make sure we can track the development process better.
And a discussion of some new internal improvements to CLI
