Keboola vs Superwise
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Keboola and Superwise — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Keboola vs Superwise: at a glance
What is Keboola?
Keboola adds dark mode while it tightens the MCP server and retires idle workspaces.
Keboola's recent releases split between hygiene and AI-agent safety. The MCP server's query_data tool is now read-only, emailing API tokens is being retired, and idle Snowflake and BigQuery workspaces will be deactivated from 9 November. On the user side, data apps start faster on pre-built images, Kai gained shared team memory, and the UI now has dark mode.
What is Superwise?
Superwise is turning its LLM gateway into a FinOps console for model fleets
Superwise's Sentinel line has gained an observability layer in two steps: a live fleet-wide activity log of every interaction crossing the gateways, then a FinOps dashboard reporting token consumption, cache-hit rate, reasoning ratio and output-to-input ratio by provider, model and sentinel. Both are explicitly metadata-only, with prompts and responses staying inside the customer's environment.
Keboola vs Superwise: editorial side-by-side
Keboola
5.0ANALYTICS
Keboola adds dark mode while it tightens the MCP server and retires idle workspaces.
◆ Current state
Keboola's recent releases split between hygiene and AI-agent safety. The MCP server's query_data tool is now read-only, emailing API tokens is being retired, and idle Snowflake and BigQuery workspaces will be deactivated from 9 November. On the user side, data apps start faster on pre-built images, Kai gained shared team memory, and the UI now has dark mode.
◆ Where it's heading
The platform is limiting what agents and stale resources can do while making its AI assistant and apps quicker to use. The pattern is deliberate cleanup ahead of wider agent usage, not new surface area.
◆ Prediction
Expect more guardrails around the MCP server and Kai, such as tighter scopes or approvals, alongside further deprecation notices with fixed dates.
Superwise
3.8ANALYTICS
Superwise is turning its LLM gateway into a FinOps console for model fleets
◆ Current state
Superwise's Sentinel line has gained an observability layer in two steps: a live fleet-wide activity log of every interaction crossing the gateways, then a FinOps dashboard reporting token consumption, cache-hit rate, reasoning ratio and output-to-input ratio by provider, model and sentinel. Both are explicitly metadata-only, with prompts and responses staying inside the customer's environment.
◆ Where it's heading
The product is moving from policy enforcement toward cost accountability, and the metadata-only boundary is being used as the selling point rather than a limitation. Underneath, routine work continues on gateway sharing, policy previews and keeping the supported model list current.
◆ Prediction
Cost visibility usually precedes cost control, so expect budget thresholds or routing policies that act on the FinOps metrics rather than only reporting them.
