How Modal uses Hex

$100M+

“Opened $100M+ in pipeline by analyzing an image and targeting outreach for the top 50 AI neolabs”

As published on hex.tech, April 2026. Checked by usedby on Oct 9, 2026.

What happened

Modal uses Hex's agents, Notebook Agent and Threads, along with a Slack integration so teams across the company can query and analyze data in plain language without building a new notebook for each question. It connects Snowflake and ClickHouse in one place and guides the agent with endorsed dbt models and a workspace rules file instead of a separate semantic layer.

Summary written by usedby from the source page, in English. The figures are those of Hex and Modal, not ours.

  • 75%“Compressed a multi-step analysis by 75% from days to under 24 hours, enabling the CEO to reach out to high-value prospects on the same day”
  • 1,300“Increased conversational analytics with 1,300 prompts sent to the agent through the Notebook Agent, Threads, and the Slack integration”
  • 53%“53% of all Threads use originated from the Slack Integration”
  • 6“Enabled 6 cross-functional teams to work with data independently, including leadership, sales, marketing, engineering, design and people teams”

Before Hex, this question would have been a multi-day project and given to someone to manually research. Instead, Hex was able to extract data from an uploaded image, infer domains, cross-reference Modal's user base, and segment companies by spend level.

Hex is magical. It changed what our team thinks is possible with data. The bottleneck used to be getting to the data, now it's just deciding what to do with it.
