Smarter Science, Better Tools: Discover What’s New in Posit for Fall ’25

2025-08-14

Many companies want to accelerate innovation, but their data science efforts are slowed down by disconnected tools, inconsistent governance, and weak integrations with existing systems. 

Winning teams know this approach doesn’t scale. They’re building a modern foundation: one that empowers developers with intelligent tools, provides confident governance, and integrates seamlessly with their data. 

Today, Posit is proud to announce new capabilities for more intelligent, productive, and secure data science. Here is what’s new and available to all existing customers:

 

The Posit AI Suite

 

Deliver trusted, AI-powered insights—faster. Accelerate your workflow with Posit’s new tools that embed AI for quicker iteration, while keeping every step secure, governed, and inspectable.

  • Positron: Posit’s new Integrated Development Environment enables data scientists to effectively work with Python, R, and other languages within a single, unified interface. Start streamlining development workflows and reducing context switching. Learn more 

  • AI Agents:  Positron includes native AI that understands you’re the expert. Positron Assistant helps you write and debug code, making suggestions that accelerate development quality, while Databot — a new, experimental data exploration agent — explores and visualizes data, then recommends next steps while keeping you in the loop. Learn more

  • AI Apps: Build, deploy, and scale GenAI-enabled apps with speed, security, and flexibility, using your preferred LLM. Use pre-built examples and templates to get started building with GenAI quickly, and enable viewers to chat with existing content.

 

Data Cloud Accelerators

 

Posit partners with leading data cloud platforms like Snowflake and Databricks to help organizations maximize the value of their data investments. By seamlessly integrating Posit Team with these platforms, data scientists can work in their preferred code-based environments (R and Python) while directly and securely accessing data where it lives. Here’s how we’re continuing to work better together:

  • Posit for Snowflake: Bring your data science tools directly to your data with the Posit Workbench Native App for Snowflake, keeping all work securely inside Snowflake’s security perimeter. Build data apps and models in Positron, right inside Snowflake. Get started in minutes with one-click deployment from the Snowflake Marketplace and reduce ops headaches with a fully managed service. Learn more 

  • Posit for Databricks: Extend what data scientists can do with Databricks, including tapping Posit’s authoring, publishing, and AI capabilities all alongside your Databricks environment. Build intelligent applications and services using foundational LLMs within Databricks. Learn more 

 

Enterprise Readiness

 

As data science teams scale, governance and measurement are critical. We’re releasing new tools to help organizations monitor usage, audit activity, and measure the ROI on their data products.

  • Chronicle usage metrics: A new reporting engine for monitoring the usage metrics of your Posit professional products, delivering performance insights for better user experience and decision-making. Learn more

  • New, deeper auditing capabilities: Posit is expanding on our robust auditing foundation across products to deliver deeper insights that strengthen reproducible research, enterprise security, and compliance. Get greater visibility into user activity and the content, packages, and workflows that increase exposure to potential risk. Learn more
