Trusted by leading data teams

Think first. Code second.

We’ve built everything we know about analyzing data and writing data-centric code into Positron’s Assistant tooling. This agent lives where you work and sees what you see, so you can ask it to instantly write, execute, and evaluate code to visualize complex patterns, reshape gnarly datasets, debug complex errors, or explain how something works, without ever leaving Positron.

Posit Chronicle: Complete Observability

Turn the black box of data science infrastructure into actionable metrics. Posit Workbench now provides administrators with real-time observability metrics along with granular session auditing, resource tracking, and active usage logs. Perfect for optimizing compute spend, understanding user behavior to better meet their needs, or meeting compliance requirements.

The Platform

Why Workbench is worth switching to

One environment for R and Python
Right now, IT is maintaining separate infrastructure for different use cases or languages, and the data team is split. Workbench gives you Positron, RStudio, VS Code, and Jupyter in a single place. Just open your browser and pick the editor you want to use, with immediate access to the appropriate data, with highly scalable resources to meet your team needs. IT can secure, update, and audit one platform, while still meeting the needs of different user communities

AI coding assistance for data scientists, secured for the enterprise
You want to realize the value of AI for data work, but IT blocks it because public AI tools send proprietary data outside the company. Workbench supports bringing your own, pre-approved LLM provider to Positron’s Assistant, an AI agent in Positron that knows data science. The data team gets help writing and debugging code, and IT can safely and securely roll out AI tools, while knowing your data isn't leaking to unapproved model providers.

Move work off local hard drives
When people work on their laptops, they download corporate data to physical devices and they’re limited by the machine's hardware. Workbench runs their session on your servers, so data scientists get the exact resources they need for heavy jobs, and IT guarantees the data never leaves your governed network.

Customer Stories

Pinterest’s People Analytics team transformed their workflow by deploying Posit Workbench natively within Snowflake, allowing them to analyze thousands of employee comments without ever moving sensitive data. This seamless integration has eliminated infrastructure headaches for IT while empowering analysts to perform sophisticated statistical modeling and NLP at scale.

TruDiagnostic faced an infrastructure challenge, managing the world's largest epigenetic dataset with fragmented tools. By adopting Posit Workbench with Amazon SageMaker, they empowered their scientists to control their computational resources with greater efficiency, unifying their R and Python environments. This transformation saved them a full year of product development time, cut their cloud infrastructure costs by 60%, and increased both their AI and statistical model training performance tenfold.

Authentication

Sanction open source without losing control

Your data teams are going to use R and Python. If you don't give them a professional environment, they’ll build their own setups on local laptops or unmanaged servers. Posit Workbench lets you bring these workflows into the light. It integrates directly with your existing identity provider so you can manage access, monitor usage, and offboard users just like any other enterprise application.

USAGE & OBSERVABILITY

Your data science ROI is too important to guess

High-performance compute is expensive, yet most organizations treat it like a black box. You see the infrastructure costs, but you can’t see the activity driving them. Posit Workbench changes that by capturing granular audit logs of every session, including who is working, which tools they’re using, and how much CPU and RAM they’ve allocated. Whether you’re optimizing your cloud budget or meeting compliance requirements, you finally have the data to prove exactly how your resources are being used.

DATA CONNECTIVITY

Secure, governed data access that just works

Connecting a local laptop to an enterprise data warehouse usually requires a manual hunt for insecure, long-lived access tokens, arbitrary R or Python packages, or ODBC drivers and a complex local configuration that breaks whenever something is updated. Posit Workbench includes immediate access to your existing data governance tools via secure, short-lived OAuth authorization tokens and commercially supported drivers for Snowflake, Databricks, and other major sources that IT can pre-install and manage on the server.

RELIABILITY & SUPPORT

Maintain uptime and get expert help when you need it

If you’ve read this far, you know that data science is too important to treat like a back-office experiment. When your server goes down, your business stops making data-driven decisions. Posit Workbench supports High Availability (HA) so if one server node fails, the work doesn’t have to stop. And when you need expert support, you get a direct line to our professional team to help diagnose and troubleshoot.
