SYNQ Data Observability & Scout Agent (Coalesce Quality)

Synq Ltd builds SYNQ, a data quality and observability platform for analytics and data engineering teams, with terms governed by the laws of England and Wales. In March 2026 it was acquired by Coalesce, a data transformation vendor, and the product is being rebranded as Coalesce Quality. It targets teams whose dbt or SQLMesh pipelines break silently and whose alerts lack clear owners.

SYNQ organises monitoring around data products such as key datasets and ML models. It combines dbt tests and audits with anomaly monitors, maps ownership so alerts reach the right people, and manages incidents with lineage-based root-cause analysis. Scout, an always-on AI agent, recommends tests from lineage and usage, triages alerts and proposes code fixes, and its engine is exposed through an MCP server for Claude and other AI tools. Customers named on the site include Typeform, BP, Lunar, Voi, Aiven, Spendesk, Freetrade, IAG and Bravida.

• Scout AI agent: Monitors, triages and proposes fixes for data quality issues around the clock.
• Testing and anomaly monitoring: Combines dbt tests and audits with automated anomaly monitors.
• Ownership activation: Maps responsibility for data assets and routes alerts to the right stakeholders.
• Incident management: Detects, groups and tracks incidents with awareness of affected processes.
• Lineage and root cause: Traces issues across the pipeline down to the related code commit.
• Data quality MCP: Exposes lineage, issues and change history to Claude and other AI clients.

A Vietnamese fintech or e-commerce company running dbt on BigQuery or Snowflake can assign owners to key revenue and risk tables and let Scout triage failing tests overnight. A digital bank can track SLAs of regulatory data products and see downstream impact before a report is sent.

Alerts are routed to named owners of each data product, which cuts noise and shortens time to resolution. Scout triages issues and suggests code fixes, reducing manual debugging for small data teams. Testing advice based on lineage and usage helps teams put checks where they matter most. The vendor reports monitoring 5 million runs per day and shows SOC 2 and GDPR badges.

Data teams are adopting dbt and analytics engineering practices, and the number of models and tests is growing faster than headcount. AI agents that triage alerts and propose fixes, plus consolidation of transformation, catalog and quality into one platform, are emerging trends that also reach growing data teams at Southeast Asian tech companies and banks.

Synq Ltd operates under the laws of England and Wales according to its terms. On 10 March 2026 Coalesce announced the acquisition of SYNQ and the launch of Coalesce Quality, which works alongside Coalesce Transform and Coalesce Catalog. SYNQ holds Snowflake and Databricks partner badges and a 4.8 rating on G2.
