This community-driven approach puts power back in the hands of practitioners while maintaining governance and scalability for enterprise use.
With a rapidly growing open-source community and an enterprise-grade cloud platform, dbt is at the heart of the modern data stack. It’s the go-to solution for teams who want faster analytics, higher quality data, and the confidence that comes from transparent, testable transformations.

Plauti
Plauti builds native data-quality applications that run entirely within your CRM environment. No data is sent to external servers or third-party processing services, and there’s no parallel infrastructure to maintain. Your data stays where it belongs: under your control, behind your security perimeter, governed by your own access model.
For Salesforce, Plauti addresses the full lifecycle of data quality:
> Prevention at entry: Real-time duplicate detection alerts users as they type, blocking bad data before it’s created.
> Detection from external sources: Identify duplicates coming from integrations, imports, and APIs, so data quality doesn’t degrade over time.
> Batch remediation at scale: Run powerful batch jobs to find, review, and merge existing duplicates, with full audit trails for compliance and governance.
> Contact data verification: Validate email addresses and phone numbers before they’re saved to reduce bounces and failed outreach.
All processing runs natively on Salesforce infrastructure. Plauti respects your existing profiles, roles, and permission sets, so there’s no separate login, no data synchronization layer, and no new security surface to harden.
For Microsoft Dynamics 365, Plauti provides similar control over duplicates with real-time alerts, API-driven detection, batch processing, and cross-entity matching. It’s designed for CRM admins and data stewards who need direct, immediate control over data quality without waiting on developers, external consultants, or long IT ticket queues.
