Genius.AI: Hex ate our legacy BI stack

01

Overview

Lightning talk · 2026

Genius.ai converted its legacy YAML files into semantic models, then built a context setup and workflow that gave them the confidence to make everyone a data person.

In this session, they'll walk through:

  • Migrating a legacy config repo into a version-controlled semantic layer
  • How a semantic layer replaced config files without losing precision
  • Building the context workflow that made trusting the agent possible
  • Workflows that were augmented with increased access to data and polyglot notebooks
