# About dbt Wizard in the dbt platform [Preview](https://docs.getdbt.com/docs/dbt-versions/product-lifecycles "Go to https://docs.getdbt.com/docs/dbt-versions/product-lifecycles")

dbt platform | Starter, Enterprise, Enterprise+

dbt Wizard helps teams ship trusted dbt changes faster and with less risk. It uses native dbt metadata, routes to the right tools, and validates with warehouse awareness so teams can investigate, change, validate, and ship in one place.

dbt Wizard is more than a general coding agent with access to dbt. Built for governed data development in dbt, it understands lineage, documentation, tests, and semantic definitions, and accounts for dev builds, compute, run time, and post-build inspection. Its suggestions are grounded in your project's actual data *and* context.

An admin must [enable dbt Wizard](./enable-dbt-ai.md) for your account before you can use it in the platform.

dbt Wizard comes with various features like:

* Built-in [agent mode](../dbt-ai/wizard-ide.md#agent-modes) to help you manage agent control:

  * **Ask for approval** mode allows you to review and approve each file change before dbt Wizard takes action
  * **Edit files automatically** mode allows the agent to automatically make edits without approval.

* A simplified wayfinder bar shows your current project and branch and guides you through Git tasks, such as committing files or creating a branch.

* Built-in [dbt Agent Skills](https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-agent-skills) encode dbt best practices for consistent output.

## What you can do

Use dbt Wizard in the dbt platform to:

* Leverage agentic capabilities in the [Wizard home tab](./wizard-home.md) or [Studio IDE](../dbt-ai/wizard-ide.md) for governed data development in dbt.
* Ask project-aware questions and get context-grounded answers
* Generate documentation, semantic models, tests, and metrics
* Build or refactor models from plain-language prompts
* Review file changes as diffs before persisting
* Run end-to-end tasks in approval or automatic edit modes

Best practices for using dbt Wizard

Most of the workflows in [How to use dbt Wizard in your dbt project](../../best-practices/how-to-use-wizard/wizard-1-intro.md) apply here too — the prompts work the same in Studio IDE and the Wizard home tab.

tip

Always review AI-generated content, as it may be incorrect. For prompt best practices, refer to the [Prompt cookbook](../../guides/prompt-cookbook.md).

*dbt Wizard is available in Studio IDE as a public preview feature, and as a standalone beta feature across the managed dbt platform. However, certain customers may have disabled experimental features, in which case, they can use Wizard CLI via terminal-access and will continue to have access to dbt Copilot until dbt Wizard is released as generally available to all customers. [Contact dbt Support](mailto:support@getdbt.com) with any questions.*
