Speak to our teamWhy analytics teams choose Dune over SonarX
Analytics included — no warehouse required
Dune is a complete analytics platform. Write SQL, build dashboards, and share insights without connecting a data warehouse. SonarX delivers raw data to Snowflake or BigQuery — your analytics layer is your problem.
1M+ decoded smart contracts
Dune's decoded layer transforms raw logs and traces into human-readable tables validated by the world's top onchain analysts. SonarX indexes raw chain data without a decoded layer of this depth.
SQL purpose-built for blockchain data
DuneSQL ships with blockchain-native types — varbinary for wallet addresses, uint256 for token amounts — and built-in functions for hex decoding, log parsing, and working with onchain data structures. Where generic SQL forces your team to write brittle type casts and workarounds, DuneSQL handles them natively.
dbt, APIs, MCP — your workflow
Transform with dbt Connector, serve via API, connect AI agents via MCP, or export to your own warehouse with Datashare. Dune fits your existing stack.
