Understand your data

Real operational knowledge. Your team's conventions.

Every pipeline execution, failure, and correction generates signal. Otto captures it, learns from it, and feeds it back, so every session picks up where the last one left off.

provider docs.

Available to any agent

Airflow docs, provider documentation, community best practices. Available to any agent via the astronomer/agents repo on GitHub.

Proprietary · Astronomer

Compatibility knowledge base.

Built by Astronomer

Version matrices, deprecation maps, upgrade paths, failure signatures. Built from eight years of running Airflow at enterprise scale.

Your team · Otto Memory

Conventions & operational history.

Private to your org

Your conventions, your connection configs, your corrections, and operational history. Accumulated automatically. Compounds every session.

Available where you work.

Astro UI

In Astro

Otto is available directly in Astro: author DAGs, plan upgrades, and investigate failures without leaving your browser. No local setup required.

Coming Soon

In VSCode and Cursor

Use Otto to author and test DAGs locally, test against ephemeral or existing Astro Deployments, deploy to Astro, and operate what's deployed (runs, logs, history) without leaving VS Code or Cursor.

Astro MCP

In any AI tool

Bring Otto’s Airflow expertise into Claude Code, Cursor, or any AI tool your team already uses via MCP. Access the same proprietary context, wherever you work.

Early Access

Migrate to Airflow faster with Otto.

Migration projects stall because the workflow-to-workflow translation is slow, manual, and requires deep expertise on both sides. Otto accelerates that work. Whether you're consolidating from schedulers like Control-M or Autosys, or migrating across Airflow environments.

Migration support is available in early access. If your team has an active migration project, we’d love to talk.

The future of data engineering starts here.

Stop drowning in operational work. Otto is how your team delivers trusted, timely data, without the overhead. Curious what that looks like for your environment? Let's talk.
