## Why Data Formulator?

Working with data is hard for two simple reasons:

1. **Data lives everywhere.** Connecting agents to files, databases,
   warehouses, and BI tools takes time. It is even harder when agents start
   answering before the relationships between data sources are clear.
2. **Questions evolve as you explore.** Each answer can lead to follow-up
   questions, comparisons, and new directions. A long chat history makes it
   hard to see where you are and how you got there.

Data Formulator provides one visual workspace for exploring and analyzing data:

1. **Data connectors** give agents a common way to connect to different data
   sources and maintains a data memory to remember the relationships between them.
2. **Data Threads** let you branch into different questions, compare paths,
   and use visualizations to discover deeper insights without losing context.

> [!TIP]
> **Love the charts?** They're built on [**Flint**](https://microsoft.github.io/flint-chart/). It's an open-source visualization language that compiles compact chart specs into polished visualizations.
