# Introduction

> How to set up and get the most out of Coalesce Quality

Coalesce Quality is a data observability platform designed for model and metric-centric data stacks with a strong emphasis on data products and ownership. It’s built for teams that power business-critical use cases to detect issues in near real-time without needing a full-time data engineer to manage and set up the platform.

The platform is simple on the surface, but complex under the hood. This means it’s simple to set up and get going—most customers are up and running in less than 30 minutes. But simultaneously, it’s powerful and flexible enough to support advanced use cases.
