WhoDB

WhoDB: Data platform that brings databases, queries, and team context into one visual workspace for lineage and pipelines.

WhoDB is a data platform for lineage, pipelines, and AI that brings databases, queries, and team context into one clear, visual workspace. It allows users to trace data back to its source, follow tables, queries, and transformations step by step, and fix bad metrics quickly without tab-swapping or guessing. The platform is built for engineers, analysts, and operators, giving teams a shared view of active workflows, clear ownership, and key manual checks. It replaces fragile spreadsheets and clunky VBA macros with clean, trackable pricing and data processes. Users can trace where any number originated, what changed along the way, and which downstream dashboards or jobs might be affected. WhoDB is available fully hosted on WhoDB Cloud or as a Managed Private deployment.
