**APIs profiled:** 27

Tower is a Python-native data flow orchestrator and fully-managed data backend for pipelines, agents, and data applications, pairing serverless (or self-hosted) Python compute with an open Apache Iceberg-based lakehouse that is compatible with Snowflake, Spark, and DuckDB. Teams deploy versioned apps with a Towerfile, run dbt Core and dlt ingestion pipelines, schedule and observe runs, and power data agents grounded in fresh company data. Founded by engineers from Snowflake, Databricks, Google Cloud Dataflow, and Puppet, and backed by Speedinvest, Tower ships a REST API, a CLI, a Python SDK, an official MCP server, and provider-published agent skills.
