Hey HN! I'm Egor, one of SLayer's authors.
We built SLayer because the traditional semantic layers felt just too clunky for what we were trying to do.
Coming in the next release: joint hybrid search on both memories and entities such as columns: retrieve what's directly relevant to your question.
Would you like a dbt SL facade to also drive a dashboard off this, or integration with your favorite database? Let us know!
feels much closer to how analysts work vs stateless text-to-SQL every query
Thanks! We found it true for both users and agents.
