Data seems Complex, when it should be simple, if not magical

We solve your Data Problems

You don’t always need the same thing to solve your data problem. Sometimes it’s an out-of-the-box solution, sometimes a platform, sometimes a team, and sometimes a guide. With AgileData, you don’t have to compromise, everything you need is from one team and in one place.

Think of the AgileData ecosystem as your Swiss Army knife for data. Each tool is designed to work seamlessly with the others, so you can leverage the right solution at the right time and know it will fit.

AgileData.team for a Fractional Data Service, AgileData.cloud for the App and Platform, AgileData.coach for expert coaching, AgileDataGuides.com for our books, patterns and courses, ContextPlane.ai for our out-of the-box Unified Context solution.

Every part is powered by the same expertise and automation, so you get solutions to your data problems fast, without paying for wasted time or effort.

Meet Shane, Nigel and ADI

At the heart of AgileData is a small team with a big impact. Shane brings deep expertise in agile data ways of working, helping teams cut through complexity and focus on outcomes. Nigel is the engineer who can automate almost anything, building the foundations that keep data flowing.

Together, they’ve worked side by side for over two decades, developing a shared language and a proven way of solving even the messiest data challenges.

And then there’s ADI,  our ever-present virtual data agent and trusted sidekick. ADI carries the patterns we’ve refined over years of practice and puts them to work, quietly automating the repetitive tasks that normally slow data teams down. That’s how we scale our service without scaling your costs. With ADI in the background and Shane and Nigel up front, you get more value from every subscription dollar, and we stay focused on solving the next data problem.

You need to use data, but it’s harder than it should be

We solve your Data Problems

Think of us like Netflix, here to solve your data problems when you need us, without the overhead. You don’t have to hire a big data team, or be locked into long, expensive projects, or pay consultants for 40 hours a week, every week, whether you need them or not.

Here’s a dirty little secret: most of the time, you’re not paying data consultants or your data team for data problems solved, you’re paying for hours worked. Traditional data consultants bill you for effort, not results, because that’s what works best for their business model, not for yours.

We have a different business model. Our expertise and automation are built into our AgileData Coaching, App and Platform, allowing us to solve your data problems or your data team problems via a Fractional Data Service. You get the outcomes you need, without paying for time you don’t use, or time we spend waiting for you, all based on a simple monthly subscription.

With AgileData you don’t need to stitch together cloud infrastructure, databases, pipelines, models, catalogs and dashboards from half a dozen tools. Our AgileData Platform brings it all together, infrastructure, storage, design, transformation, quality, governance, catalog and access, so you can skip the complexity and go straight to dealing with making your data fit for purpose.

Here’s the dirty little secret: most platforms make you do all the heavy lifting. They sell you technology, then leave you to figure out the rest. That’s effort, not outcomes.

We do it differently. The AgileData App and Platform comes codified with our opinionated Way of Working and DataOps expertise and automation built in. Upload your files, design your data, apply your logic, pick your outputs and we do the hard stuff behind the scenes. You get trusted data, fast, based on a simple monthly subscription.

You need an end-to-end data platform, but don't want to cobble one TOgether

Data Platform as a Service

Helping your data team to solve their own Way of working problems

Agile Data Coaching

Think of us like a performance coach for your data team, not another contractor who writes code, or consultant who embeds themselves forever, but someone who helps your team unlock its full potential. You don’t need more hours of effort; you need a way of working that makes your existing data team faster, more effective, and less stressed.

Here’s the dirty little secret: most data teams aren’t failing because of lack of talent or effort. They’re failing because the system around them makes it hard to succeed. Too many tools, too many priorities, too many disparate or ad-hoc ways of working.

Our Agile Data Coaching service helps your team change how they work, not just what they work on. We bring expertise, experience, patterns, and hands-on coaching support to help your data team deliver faster, with less effort and while having more fun.

Patterns and pattern templates from the agile and product domains can be applied to the data domain to solve common data problems.

Reusable patterns and templates are useful because they:

    • represent proven solutions to common problems;
    • organise solutions into a standard and easily referenced format;
    • can be adopted and implemented by most practitioners who work in the data and analytics domain;
    • can be used to ensure consistency in how teams work together;
    • provide a shared language for specific problems and potential solutions.

We take the patterns we have discovered, iterated or crafted with my customers over the last 35 years and share them using a book pattern.

Agile Data Ways of Working

Next gen semantic catalog, built for humans and AI alike

Unified Context Plane

Unify context across all your data, platforms, and tools, make it accessible to both Humans and AI Agents.

Context Plane combines business language, questions, and outcomes alongside metadata definitions, code, metrics, policies, and lineage so everyone and everything answers the same way.

More than a Data Catalog or a BI Semantic Layer, it surfaces the “why,” not just the “what” to both Humans and AI Agents alike
