Frequently Asked Questions

Seambo is shared, versioned business logic infrastructure. It captures how your company defines its metrics, processes, and business rules in one place, then makes those definitions usable across every tool, team, and AI system.

BI tools visualize data but embed logic inside each dashboard. When you need to change a definition, you update it in multiple places. Seambo centralizes the logic layer so your definitions stay consistent whether you're using Tableau, Power BI, a spreadsheet, or an AI copilot. Tools become interchangeable.

No. Data catalogs document what data exists. Seambo captures what data means. It's the layer that defines "revenue," "active customer," and "churn rate" so everyone calculates them the same way.

Data modeling tools define how data is structured. Seambo captures what that data means to the business—the definitions, calculations, and rules that everyone needs to agree on. It's the logic layer that sits above your data models and makes them usable across every tool.

Any company where multiple people or tools need to agree on what terms like "revenue," "customer," or "active" mean. This includes data teams, finance teams, operations teams, and anyone who's ever argued about why two reports show different numbers.

Seambo captures logic as a byproduct of doing work. As people use familiar interfaces like spreadsheets, workflows, and alerts, Seambo formalizes the definitions underneath. No separate governance project required. Interfaces drive adoption; logic compounds underneath.

No. Seambo works alongside your existing tools. Keep using Excel, your BI platform, and your AI tools. Seambo provides the shared definitions that make them all consistent. When you swap out a tool, your logic stays.

AI copilots give confident but conflicting answers because they don't share a consistent understanding of your business. Seambo gives AI systems access to governed definitions, so every copilot uses the same logic. No more conflicting AI answers.

You can start capturing logic immediately. The interface is familiar (spreadsheet-based), so there's minimal learning curve. Most teams see value within the first session.

That's the problem Seambo solves. Start by defining the most contested metrics first. As you add definitions to Seambo, they become the authoritative source. You don't need to migrate everything at once.

Definitions are versioned and changes require explicit updates. When someone modifies a metric, all connected tools receive the new version automatically. There's no way for one tool to fall out of sync because tools don't store copies—they query the source.

AI integrations query Seambo via API before generating answers. If an AI tool doesn't use the integration, it won't get the definitions. You can see which tools are connected in your Seambo dashboard and audit which definitions each query accessed.

Auto-documentation captures logic from spreadsheet formulas, SQL queries, and workflow definitions. It's a starting point, not a replacement for human review. Subject matter experts validate and refine the captured definitions—the system learns from their corrections.

No. Seambo connects to your existing data sources without requiring migrations. There's no "big bang" project. You can adopt incrementally, starting with the definitions that cause the most confusion.

No. Your definitions, documentation, and logic remain accessible and exportable. We believe in earning your business every month, not trapping you. The logic you define is yours.

No. Seambo reduces the need for specialized data expertise by making business logic accessible to everyone. Subject matter experts can define and maintain their own metrics without waiting for the data team.

Every definition has a history. When someone changes "revenue" to exclude a customer segment, the change is tracked. You can see who changed what, when, and why. Audit trails are built in.

Seambo stores definitions and metadata, not your underlying data. There's no practical limit on the number of definitions you can create. Enterprise plans include dedicated infrastructure for high-volume API queries.

Seambo surfaces conflicts explicitly. When two teams define "revenue" differently, both definitions are visible with their owners. The resolution workflow lets stakeholders discuss and decide on a canonical definition—or maintain both with clear labels like "Revenue (Sales)" and "Revenue (Finance)".

Definitions live in dashboards, spreadsheets, and people's heads—not in one place. Each team defines "revenue" or "active customer" slightly differently. When you rebuild a metric in a new tool, you recreate it from memory, introducing subtle differences that compound over time. Seambo creates a single place where definitions live and automatically propagate everywhere.

Logic is embedded inside tools instead of owned by the company. Each BI platform, AI copilot, and automation has its own way of defining calculations. Seambo centralizes business logic so tools become interchangeable instead of fragile dependencies.

AI systems don't share a consistent understanding of the business. Each AI tool reads from different data sources with different definitions. Seambo gives AI and automation a shared, governed understanding so answers stay consistent as definitions evolve.

Business context is implicit, undocumented, and unversioned. When key people leave or systems change, the context vanishes. Seambo makes business logic explicit, versioned, and auditable—so meaning persists even as tools and people change.

No. Seambo stores definitions and metadata, not your underlying data. Your actual data stays in your existing systems. Seambo provides the logic layer that sits on top.

We support OAuth 2.0 with Google and Azure AD. Enterprise customers get SSO integration. All access is logged and auditable.

You control access. Set permissions for who can view, edit, and approve definition changes. Changes can require approval workflows for critical metrics.

Start with a specific problem: a metric that's calculated differently in different places, or a definition that causes recurring debates. Use Seambo to define it once, then see how it propagates.
