Mica AI

About

Mica’s AI agents replace the team that resolves data pipeline exceptions — the messy edge cases that orchestration tools like Airflow, dbt, or Fivetran can’t fix. These failures require human judgment and context that rules can’t capture. When a pipeline hits bad or incomplete data, Mica does what a human would: it inspects the records, pulls context from internal databases, checks company docs, looks up information in external systems, and takes the correct action to get the pipeline moving again. The result: your data pipelines scale without scaling your headcount. Mica turns exception handling from a manual bottleneck into an automated background process.
