Connect Looker and
Redshift with AI

Redbird AI automates the flow between your BI layer and cloud data warehouse. Stop manually validating LookML models against Redshift schemas, debugging query performance across systems, or reconciling metric definitions with underlying table structures.

What you can automate today

Redbird gives your team ready-to-run workflows — just connect your accounts and go.

Validate LookML model definitions against Redshift schema changes automatically

When tables or columns change in Redshift, instantly validate all dependent LookML explores and dimensions. Redbird identifies breaking changes before they impact dashboards and alerts analytics teams to update model definitions proactively.

Monitor Looker query performance and optimize Redshift tables based on usage

Track slow-running Looker queries and analyze their execution patterns in Redshift. Automatically identify tables needing sort keys, distribution keys, or materialized views based on actual BI query patterns, not guesswork.

Sync Redshift data quality metrics into Looker for centralized monitoring

Capture row counts, null rates, freshness checks, and constraint violations from Redshift and surface them in Looker dashboards. Give data teams a single BI view of warehouse health without writing custom SQL.

Archive Looker query history and metadata to Redshift for analysis

Automatically log query patterns, dashboard usage, and user activity from Looker into Redshift tables. Build historical analytics on BI adoption, identify unused content, and track metric consumption across business units.

Alert when Looker metrics drift from expected Redshift aggregation results

Continuously compare metric calculations in LookML against ground truth queries in Redshift. When definitions diverge or data quality issues cause discrepancies, notify data teams before executives see wrong numbers in dashboards.

Enrich Redshift cost and performance data with Looker usage context

Correlate Redshift query costs with the Looker users, dashboards, and explores that generated them. Identify which business teams or reports drive warehouse spend and optimize expensive queries with full context.

Live in four steps

No engineers, no pipelines to maintain. Redbird handles the connectivity — you focus on the outcome.

01

Connect your accounts

Authorize Looker and Redshift with OAuth or API credentials. Redbird never stores your data — it just passes through.

02

Describe what you want

Tell Redbird what to do in plain language — no SQL, no code, no configuration files required.

03

Review and activate

Redbird shows you exactly what it will do before running anything. Approve the workflow, set a schedule, and switch it on.

04

Let it run — and iterate

Workflows run on your schedule or on triggers. Every run is logged. Adjust with natural language at any time.

Built for data-driven teams

Redbird AI understands both LookML semantic models and Redshift database schemas, so you can automate validation, monitoring, and optimization across your BI and warehouse layers.

AI that speaks LookML and Redshift SQL

Redbird parses LookML explores, joins, and dimension definitions alongside Redshift table schemas, distribution keys, and query execution plans. It maps semantic layer metrics to underlying warehouse tables, validates field dependencies across both systems, and identifies performance bottlenecks from BI query patterns hitting specific Redshift structures. The AI understands when a Looker dimension references a derived table, how that table's materialization impacts query performance, and which distribution strategies would optimize the most-used dashboard queries.

faster to validate BI models against warehouse schemas than manual SQL testing

No custom Python scripts or dbt tests to maintain for every schema change

Auto-generated reports

Redbird can pull from Looker and Redshift simultaneously, merge the results, and format a polished report — sent on a schedule or on demand.

Trigger-based alerts

Set conditions in natural language. Get notified in Slack or email the moment a threshold is crossed in either Looker or Redshift.

Enterprise-grade security

SOC 2 Type II certified. Data flows encrypted in transit and at rest. Fine-grained permission controls with full audit logs.

Bidirectional sync

Push data from Looker into Redshift, or from Redshift back into Looker. Resolve conflicts with configurable merge rules.

Full audit trail

Every workflow run is logged — what ran, what changed, and why. Replay or revert any individual step at any time.

Triggers & actions for every team

Start automations from any Looker dashboard event or Redshift schema change and trigger actions across your entire analytics stack.
