DX
Application
DX AI is a conversational interface for exploring an organization's engineering data held in DX, described by the vendor as 'the copilot for engineering leaders.' It answers natural-language questions with generated charts, summarizes qualitative snapshot data into themes and sentiment, and diagnoses the drivers behind metric changes. Its data can also be streamed into external LLM clients via the DX MCP server.
Glean (Glean Technologies)
Application
Governs model traffic, tool calls and enterprise AI context flowing through third-party AI applications.
Enterprise-context AI coworker that answers questions, summarizes documents and takes action grounded in a company's own connected data.
Builds enterprise context for AI from a company's applications, people and relationships (the knowledge/enterprise graph underlying Glean's other products).
Model-routing and cost-optimization layer for the Glean platform: routes each task to the best of 40+ LLMs by cost/performance, runs continual memory learning across surfaces, and orchestrates an agent harness for long-running work.
Governs AI wherever work happens: sensitive-data and AI-interaction protection, agent-permission enforcement, prompt-injection defense (96.9% detection accuracy) and end-to-end audit logging.
Permissions-aware enterprise search across 100+ connected apps, using deep-learning semantic understanding and a company knowledge graph for personalized, real-time-indexed results.
Announced ("coming soon") module that maps enterprise workflows, ranks AI-automation opportunities, drafts agent blueprints for Glean Agent Builder, and tracks ROI of AI adoption.
An intelligent company homepage that brings work, knowledge and agents into one surface.

API service
The DX MCP server exposes a customer's DX data to MCP-compatible AI clients such as Claude, Cursor and Devin Desktop. It is deliberately read-only, offering tools to list and retrieve software catalog entities, scorecards and initiatives, and teams, plus execution of SQL queries against the DX Data Cloud PostgreSQL database. It is available as a DX-hosted remote endpoint at ai.getdx.com/mcp or run locally from DX's open-source dx-mcp-server repository.
Developer tool
AI Code Insights measures what AI coding agents produce inside an engineering organization, tracking AI-generated code by commit, PR, team, agent and repo from IDE to production. It attributes authorship by monitoring supported coding agents' edits and links them to commits, pull requests and deployments, reporting adoption, delivery velocity, code-quality signals and session-level agent performance. It includes the Agent Experience report, which scores requirements clarity, steering and task scope from the agent's perspective.
Command-line interface to a DX instance, built so coding agents can drive it: it ships an agent skill telling an agent when and how to call the CLI, and covers the same catalog, scorecard and self-service operations a human uses the dashboard for.
Fabric is DX's context layer for AI agents, marketed as 'the context engine for AI-native engineering.' It turns an organization's software catalog into structured, live context that agents can query, and adds scorecards and self-service automation so agents can create services, provision infrastructure and resolve failing standards checks. Context is exposed to any MCP-compatible agent via the DX MCP server.
