### AI overview

Omni's rule-based alerts monitor data conditions and send notifications to email, Slack, or webhooks on a chosen schedule. Examples include tracking sales changes, stalled GitHub issues, missing Salesforce information, and gaps in dashboard data. The article also describes how Ascend uses alerts to initiate operational, sales, and company-wide workflows, then outlines how to configure an alert.

### Source excerpt

I've built alerts for a data product before, but we didn't want to rinse and repeat when building alerts for Omni. Our goal was to make it easier for anyone to stay informed and kickstart workflows with data, and we were excited to find ways that unique features like Omni Calculations and AI could help them achieve that.

### AI overview

Omni introduces Calculations, bringing familiar spreadsheet formulas, A1-style references, inline editing and manual data entry to its business intelligence product. Users can calculate metrics on live data and promote formulas into the data model for reuse. The feature aims to make self-service analysis more accessible while reducing stale extracts and inconsistent metric definitions.

### Source excerpt

When you ask anyone whether they use data for their job, 99% of folks think about spreadsheets. Excel and Google Sheets have become ubiquitous for data work inside companies (and sometimes even for household chores!).
