Too vague of description. I have no idea what you are trying to build. What are you trying to automate? Model building? If so are you trying to make it easy for a business operations person to build their own models without help from a data scientist? Or are you trying to automate the conversion of models into production workflows that integrate with other enterprise applications? That is data engineering. What are you trying to optimize? My time in doing analysis? Trying to guide analysis down useful paths and eliminate dead ends with features that are not actually helpful? What do you include in your domain of data science? Sometimes people reduce it to neural networks deep learning architectures. Others include all types of statistical learning. Others include NLP. While others might focus on IoT of time series analysis. At least in part tools are tied to the specific subset of the data science domain that a person is working within.

For automation, I am automating the data engineering portion so yeah, productionalizing models, documenting, version control, etc. There will be some pre-built models for a business operations person to explore but a data scientist can also build their own model in R and/or Python. For optimisation, exactly. Looking to guide your dataset exploration to help you find features faster. Summarise the data automatically and in the future, suggest which features may be useful or not while still leaving you as the expert to decide. For my domain of data science, it will be in the realm of model building. Think of it as more of a workflow tool to sync the data science team together. So the intention is to be tool agnostic. I’m also looking at reusable datasets that are certified and cleaned by data engineers or other team members as well as pre-cleaned data available for purchase to add to the model (looking to tap into free public open datasets as well) Hope that helps? Thanks for your comment. I’ll amend my post to make it clearer.
