Dashboards, drag-and-drop, and spreadsheets were just the beginning.

I also created a chart showing revenue vs growth. Let me know if you'd like to break this down by region or customer sector.
Can you break this out by region too? I want to see how each product line performed across the Core Worlds, Mid-Rim, and Outer Rim.

I found regional revenue data in the endorsed semantic model "NexaCorp: Galactic Sales Model." This model contains standardized region definitions (Core Worlds, Mid-Rim, Outer Rim) and pre-calculated revenue metrics, which is the best source for your question.

Let me create a grouped bar chart so you can compare regions within each product line:

FAQ

Isn't Hex mainly for data teams? What about non-technical users?
chevron-down
Hex gives business users approachable ways to engage with data, like interactive apps and natural-language queries, while still offering the depth analysts need for technical work. Both groups share the same workspace, which means stakeholders get answers faster and data teams don’t have to rework analysis across multiple tools.
Why combine BI and technical data workflows in one tool?
chevron-down
Business questions come in all shapes and forms. Sometimes it’s a simple KPI trend, other times it’s “why is this happening?” or “what can we expect next?”, which requires deeper analysis. Splitting BI and technical analysis across different tools creates friction, duplicate effort, and inconsistent answers. Hex unifies it all in one place so the workflow stays connected.
Can you create dashboards in Hex?
chevron-down
Yes. Hex supports traditional dashboards, but also goes further, letting teams build interactive data apps, parameterized views, and even workflows with predictive models. That flexibility means you can cover executive reporting and deeper analysis in the same place, instead of maintaining separate tools.
Are there no-code ways for users to explore data in Hex?
chevron-down
Yes. Hex lets users self-serve insights with natural language Q&A, interactive charts, pivot tables, spreadsheet-style views, and simple formula-based calculations—all without writing SQL or Python.
Should I build semantic models in Hex?
chevron-down
Hex takes an interoperable approach to semantic models, giving you the flexibility to build directly in Hex or sync from other sources. Building in Hex lets you define and edit models right where you already work with data—with autocomplete, inline validation, and AI-assisted code generation in the modeling workbench.
Alternatively, you can sync existing semantic models from dbt, Snowflake, or Cube. Either way, your semantic models live alongside notebooks, self-serve, and agents, ensuring governed, reusable logic powers every workflow.
