Seeknal is a Data & ML CLI designed for teams running agent-driven data pipelines. The core workflow follows three verbs: Organize (define pipelines in YAML or Python), Expose (materialize data to PostgreSQL and Apache Iceberg), and Action (query and transform data in natural language). It uses a draft, dry-run, apply progression that gives teams control before changes hit production. The natural language query layer is what sets Seeknal apart from standard data pipeline tools. Instead of writing SQL to explore a freshly materialized table, you describe what you want — and Seeknal translates that to the appropriate query against your Postgres or Iceberg target. The combination of structured pipeline definition (YAML/Python) with flexible natural language exploration is designed for the reality that data teams include both engineers who want explicit control and analysts who want fast iteration. The 'built for the agent world' framing reflects a genuine architectural choice: Seeknal's API is designed to be called programmatically by AI agents, not just by humans with keyboards. This matters because data pipeline management is increasingly something agents need to do autonomously — fetching fresh context, materializing results, and querying outputs — without human intervention at each step. Seeknal launched on Product Hunt today targeting teams that have adopted agentic workflows but still treat their data infrastructure as human-operated.

Voker (YC S24) is an analytics platform that does for AI agents what Mixpanel did for web products — transforms raw agent conversations into structured, queryable insights without requiring a data engineering team. It auto-classifies user intents, detects when agents fail to resolve requests, surfaces knowledge gaps, and tracks performance regressions when you update your prompts. The platform integrates with OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, LangChain, CrewAI, and Vercel AI SDK via lightweight Python and TypeScript SDKs. Non-technical team members — PMs, analysts, support leads — can query conversation timelines, track satisfaction trends, and measure business impact without needing SQL or engineering support. The free tier covers 2,000 events/month, which is generous for small projects. Paid plans start at $80/month for 20K events. The core pain point is real: most teams today do spot-checks by hand to debug agent behavior at scale, which doesn't scale past a few hundred conversations. Voker automates that loop.
Reviewer scorecard
“The draft, dry-run, apply workflow is the right abstraction for data pipelines that agents touch — you want to see what's going to happen before it materializes to production Iceberg. The natural language query layer saves me from writing boilerplate SELECT statements to verify pipeline output, which is maybe 30% of my current pipeline debugging time.”
“The pain point is totally real — debugging agent behavior in production today is a nightmare of manually reading transcripts. Intent detection + resolution tracking as first-class primitives is exactly what's missing from the current toolchain. The SDK integration is clean.”
“Natural language to SQL is still unreliable for complex queries — hallucinations in your data pipeline output can corrupt downstream analysis silently. The Iceberg and Postgres combo covers a lot of use cases but excludes BigQuery, Snowflake, and Databricks users who make up a huge chunk of enterprise data teams. This feels more like an impressive demo than a production-ready CLI.”
“The 2,000 event free tier sounds decent until you realize a mid-size chatbot burns through that in a day. And at $400/month for 2M events, you're paying a premium for what's essentially LLM-powered log analysis. Full-featured observability tools like LangSmith and Langfuse are closing this gap fast.”
“Data infrastructure that agents can operate autonomously is one of the key missing pieces in the agentic stack. Today's agents are smart enough to reason about data but lack the tooling to materialize and query it reliably. Seeknal is early infrastructure for fully autonomous data agents — the kind that can ingest, transform, and query without a human in the loop.”
“Agent analytics is going to be a massive category — every company deploying autonomous AI will need to instrument it like software. Voker is positioning early in a space that'll see consolidation. The 'resolution rate' metric alone could become the north-star KPI of the agent era.”
“This is firmly in the backend infrastructure category — the YAML pipeline definitions and Iceberg targets are beyond what most creator-focused teams need. For analytics on content performance or audience data, there are simpler options. Seeknal's complexity is justified for data engineering teams but overkill for creators.”
“The self-service angle for non-technical teammates is underrated. Content and community teams using AI agents to handle engagement finally get visibility into whether those agents are actually helping users — without filing a Jira ticket to find out.”
