⭐️ Star the repo

Built by the Elementary team, helping you deliver trusted data in the AI era.

Elementary OSS is the open-source CLI for dbt-native data observability. It works with the Elementary dbt package to generate the basic Elementary observability report and send alerts to Slack and Microsoft Teams.

For teams that need data reliability at scale, we offer Elementary Cloud, a full Data & AI Control Plane with automated ML monitoring, column-level lineage from source to BI, a built-in catalog, and AI agents that scale reliability workflows for both engineers and business users.

How It Works

Elementary OSS connects to your warehouse and reads the metadata, artifacts, and test results collected by the Elementary dbt package.
With this information, it can:

• Generate a data observability report
• Surface anomalies and failed tests
• Send alerts to Slack and Teams
• Track model and test performance trends

Quickstart

Follow the quickstart guide to install and configure the Elementary dbt package and CLI:
