Congrats on the launch! How does this differ from Bigeye or Anomalo?

Our customers think of BigEye, Anomalo, and Monte Carlo very similarly (needing to go through a sales process, spending quite a bit of money), so this answer to a previous question about Monte Carlo might be useful: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29228070 (linking to avoid redundancy)

That doesn't seem like real differentiation. What specifically do you do differently than Bigeye or anomalo? Or is the real value add that I don't have to talk to a human?

I guess I just have a hard time seeing why this would help people solve real data quality issues.

Congrats Metaplane and welcome to the market. Like you, Bigeye also works for small (but mighty) data teams.

This is an exciting emerging space with folks (including multiple YC companies) tackling the problem from different directions. I helped compile a list here: https://medium.com/@vikati/the-rise-of-data-monitoring-7221e...
