See where your reports really come from
When a key metric looks wrong, you need answers quickly. Dataedo connects your data sources and BI tools, builds visual data lineage, and explains metrics in plain language, so both business and technical teams can see exactly where numbers come from and how they are calculated.
The challenge
Inconsistent KPIs
Different reports show varying values for the same metric, causing confusion and mistrust in analytics.
Unknown data sources
Teams lack visibility into which tables, views, and ETL jobs feed dashboards and reports.
Time-consuming investigations
Investigating issues consumes days of developer time and often involves long email chains.
Risk of downstream errors
Fixing one problem risks breaking another report downstream.
How Dataedo helps

Connect Dataedo to your databases, warehouse, and supported BI tools (Power BI, Tableau) to build a central catalog of tables, views, models, and reports.

FAQs
What is trusted reporting?
Trusted reporting ensures that business metrics, dashboards, and KPIs are accurate, consistent, and fully traceable back to their source data, giving teams confidence in the numbers they rely on.
How does data lineage help with trusted reporting?
Data lineage maps the flow of data from source tables through transformations to dashboards and KPIs. This visibility allows users to see exactly how each metric is calculated and where discrepancies may occur.
How can a business user verify if a report is "certified" or accurate?
Dataedo allows you to tag and document "Owners" and "Stewards" for every table and KPI. When a user looks at a report in the Dataedo Portal, they can see exactly who is responsible for that data and whether the calculation has been vetted by the data team, building immediate confidence in the numbers.
Can Dataedo help explain complex calculations in "plain language"?
Yes. One of the biggest barriers to trust is technical complexity. Dataedo lets you add a context layer over your technical schema. While the database might call a field rev_adj_fin_v2, Dataedo labels it as "Adjusted Net Revenue" and provides a written description of how it’s calculated, making the data accessible to non-technical stakeholders.
What happens to report trust when the underlying data structure changes?
Trust is broken the moment a report returns an error or a "null" value. Dataedo’s Impact Analysis allows data teams to see which reports will be affected by a change before it’s made. By proactively updating reports or notifying stakeholders, you prevent the "broken dashboard" syndrome that erodes user trust.
