Anaconda Assistant Launches to Bring Instant Data Analysis, Code Generation, and Insights to Users

Join Private Preview

Anaconda is thrilled to announce the alpha release of Anaconda Assistant, a dynamic AI-powered tool designed to help data scientists, developers, and researchers excel in their work and uncover new breakthroughs. Anaconda Assistant provides a familiar chat-box interface and enhances the Jupyter Notebook coding experience by leveraging the latest in AI to instantly accomplish data tasks like generating plots, describing dataframes, generating code snippets, debugging errors, and asking follow-up questions.

During this alpha phase, we are seeking users of Anaconda cloud notebooks who are willing to test our AI tool and provide valuable feedback that will help us refine and improve the experience for all users. As an alpha participant, you will have the opportunity to explore and test new features and functionality before they become widely available. Additionally, participating users will contribute to the development of a tool that will make a significant impact in the world of data science and technology.

To participate in the private preview of Anaconda Assistant, you must be an existing Anaconda Notebooks user. If you aren’t yet, you can sign up for a free account on Anaconda.cloud. After creating your account, visit the Anaconda Assistant early adopter sign-up page and fill in the required information.
