Salesforce has signed agreement to acquire Waii, a fast-growing startup known for its enterprise-grade natural language-to-SQL platform. The deal is expected to close in the third quarter of Salesforce’s fiscal year 2026. It is said to bring advanced data query capabilities into Salesforce’s Data Cloud and further strengthen its push into AI-powered enterprise tools.
Waii’s technology allows users to ask plain-language questions and get back complex, production-ready SQL queries, making it easier for business teams to access data without needing help from technical experts. Its core innovation is a dynamic metadata knowledge graph that maps an enterprise’s entire data environment, not just database schemas. This enables a deeper contextual understanding of data relationships, governance rules, and business logic, delivering more accurate and relevant results.
