Notes
Full Pipeline, Not Just Connectors
Stitch handles extract and load. You still need dbt, a cleansing tool, and a modeling layer. Skippr does it all in one binary.
Deterministic Schema Discovery
Stitch replicates schemas as-is. Skippr uses proprietary algorithms to discover, evolve, and optimize your schema automatically — with guaranteed consistency and backwards compatibility.
Data Stays in Your Environment
Stitch processes data in their cloud. Skippr runs on your infrastructure — your data never leaves.
Production-Ready dbt Models
Skippr generates bronze, silver, and gold dbt models automatically. With Stitch, you build models from scratch.
