Replace fragile Alteryx workflows with governed agentic flows

Alteryx has helped organizations automate data preparation and analytics for years. But as workflow libraries grow, so do the challenges.

What starts as a handful of workflows often becomes hundreds, each solving an important business problem, but collectively becoming harder to understand, maintain, and evolve.

If you’re running Alteryx at scale, you’ve likely experienced this.

When workflows become the bottleneck

The hardest part isn’t building workflows, it’s changing them.

As organizations grow, business logic becomes trapped inside visual workflows. The diagrams show what happens, but rarely explain why. Making even a small enhancement often requires tracing dozens of interconnected tools before making a safe change.

Over time, reviews become slower, onboarding becomes harder, and critical knowledge ends up living with a handful of experienced developers.

The result is familiar: a small change request sits in a queue for a week, maintenance costs climb, operational risk grows, and delivery depends on the two or three people who still remember how a given workflow fits together.

Cimba changes the experience

Cimba doesn’t replace your workflows, it changes how you work with them.

Import an existing Alteryx workflow, and Cimba reconstructs it as an AI-native pipeline while preserving deterministic execution. Instead of navigating complex visual canvases, you interact with the workflow using natural language.

Every AI-generated change is proposed for approval before it’s applied, fully versioned, reversible, and accompanied by a complete audit trail explaining what changed and why.

A change request that used to take a week of tracing becomes a described edit with a reviewable diff. Governance stops being a separate spreadsheet: approvals, versions, and the reason for each change all live on the run. And the logic is legible to anyone on the team, not just the two people who built it.

Cimba doesn’t replace your workflows, it changes how you work with them.

From existing workflow to AI-native pipeline

Modernizing doesn’t mean rebuilding.

Suppose you have an Alteryx workflow (sales_attainment_pipeline.yxmd) that combines transactions.csv, products.csv, fx_rates.csv, reps.csv, and targets.csv to produce a monthly sales attainment report.

Getting started is straightforward:

Now imagine the business asks: Add a Year-to-Date Attainment column.

Traditionally, that might require tracing multiple workflow branches, modifying several tools, and carefully validating every downstream output. With Cimba, you simply describe the change in natural language.

The AI proposes the implementation, highlights exactly what changed, and lets you review the update before it’s applied. The deterministic execution engine keeps the results reproducible, auditable, and consistent with your governance standards. Every run leaves a record that looks like this:

Modernize without starting over

Your existing Alteryx workflows already contain years of valuable business knowledge. There’s no reason to rebuild them. Import your workflows into Cimba, validate the outputs against your current results, and start evolving them through natural language instead of manual workflow editing.
