Hex 4.0 data platform adds AI agent access and a parallel query engine

According to a post on X by @hexanalytics, data platform Hex announced version 4.0 at its Prompt conference. Users can now ask questions in Hex or from agents such as Claude, Codex and Cursor, and publish the results securely.

Hex 4.0 is currently in private beta.
