Smarter Data Source Creation Has Arrived
Data-source setup is now faster and more intuitive, with a redesigned create flow, richer AI template selection, and a new AI Builder assistant inside the custom editor.

Creating a new data source now feels much more guided from the very first click. This update brings a cleaner create flow, better AI template browsing, and a brand-new AI Builder assistant for drafting custom schemas inside the editor.
A better first step
- Add Data Source now opens a more guided create dialog directly.
- AI-focused options are highlighted first, while collector-based site options remain available below.
- Add Existing Data Source is now part of the same create surface instead of a separate first step.
AI templates are easier to choose
- AI-Vision and AI Pallet QA and Routing now stay inside the same dialog when you move into template selection.
- Templates are shown as cards with descriptions, so it is easier to understand what each setup is for before creating the data source.
- The template flow still finishes by creating and attaching the data source to the current channel.
Custom schemas now have AI Assist
- The custom data-source editor now includes AI Assist.
- You can describe the structure you want, and the assistant can draft a title, description, and first-pass field list directly into the editor.
- Suggested fields are shown with more detail before you apply them, including field type, metric matching, validation, options, and expressions when relevant.
Why this feels different
- You can get from idea to first draft much faster.
- AI-based data-source setups are easier to understand before you commit.
- Custom schemas take less manual setup work.
- You get a clearer preview of what AI is about to apply before it changes the editor.
