Every scan, on every schedule. Customize every feature. Write the results anywhere your workflow lives — Fabric tables, your warehouse, Teams, a governance dashboard. Brunner BI sets it up and ships sample notebooks; you own the schedules and the runs.
Measure Killer is the most complete metadata and data lineage tool for Power BI and Microsoft Fabric. MK Automation puts that full feature set to work for you — with full focus on automation and customization: scheduled runs, custom rule sets, results delivered to the system of record.
Everything else — every detection, every governance pillar — Measure Killer Enterprise already covers. These are the differences.
Daily, weekly, monthly, or triggered by an event in your pipeline. Every Measure Killer scan, every tenant pull, every backup — fully automated inside Microsoft Fabric.
Best-practice rules, similarity weights, what counts as "used", which workspaces are in scope, which outputs you want. Everything is configurable per run.
Push findings into the tools your team already uses — a Fabric table, a Power BI dataset, Teams, your data warehouse, your access-review system. No lock-in to MK's UI.
Inventory, security, consumption, lineage, similarity, governance, backups. All scheduled, all customizable, all delivered where you need them.
Examples of what you can run with MK Automation — each one is a notebook on your schedule, customized to your rules.
Workspaces added or removed, which ones added the most items in the last 7 days, where items were removed — even the change in consumption per workspace, capacity, or domain.
Cross-reference models that refresh long and often with the unused space they carry (sum of unused columns) — the easiest pickings to cut refresh times and capacity cost, using refresh info plus the potential savings from Measure Killer's unused-column detection.
CU consumption rolled up per workspace or department, written to a Fabric table your finance dashboard reads.
A list of users exporting data from Power BI visuals — including how many CUs it cost.
A daily list of new broken visuals in production reports — e.g. the ones published to an app.
Check semantic models and Power BI reports against your own best-practice rules.
Check all models with RLS against your internal guidelines — delivered as a weekly or bi-weekly report.
Find workspaces and items where access is granted to lots of individual users instead of security groups.
See who is sharing content from their personal workspace with other people.
Every custom visual used in your org, with a user count and views per visual.
All models and dataflows with refresh failures — or that silently stopped refreshing in the last 24 hours.
A weekly list of new, potentially duplicate semantic models and reports someone built.
Flag models that use hand-written SQL in Power Query against your internal rules.
A Teams message when a model's CU consumption jumps day-over-day — before it throttles the capacity.
A monthly digest of reports and apps with zero opens in the last 28 days.
We import the MK Automation Python package into your Microsoft Fabric environment, configure the 30+ sample notebooks for your tenant, and set permissions.
You pick which scans run, on what cadence, with which rule sets and scope. Brunner BI is on hand for setup questions and helps make sure everything works. Every scan is a notebook — yours to edit, fork, or extend.
Findings, exports and backups land in the Fabric tables, dashboards, or systems your team already uses. Set up alerts, dashboards, or governance workflows on top.
All five capacity tiers unlock every MK Automation feature, plus a company-wide license for the desktop app. The differences are setup time, update cadence, support channel, and how much included custom development you get each month.

Tiers are based on the combined size of all production capacities in your tenant, expressed in F64 equivalents — the SKU mix doesn't matter. 10× F64 equals e.g. 1× F512 + 1× F128, or any other combination adding up to the same total.
"Included custom dev" is consulting time we apply each month to extend notebooks, build new ones, or tune scans for your tenant. Anything beyond is billed at the per-tier rate shown.
Short walkthroughs of a scheduled tenant scan and custom rule-set runs.
Every App and Audience across the tenant, with the users who can access them and the content inside.
Surface unused columns and measures across all connected reports, or trace exactly where any field is consumed.
MK Automation runs inside your own Microsoft Fabric tenant. Brunner BI handles the initial setup and provides 30+ sample notebooks for the typical scans; your team owns the schedules, the runs, and the day-to-day operation. Custom development is available on the higher capacity tiers. It pairs with an MK Enterprise license that covers your desktop users.
Pricing scales with the size of your Fabric environment (F64 equivalents). Two- and three-year commitments come with 20% and 35% discounts respectively. Build a quote in the calculator — pick your capacity tier, pick a term length, and the discount is applied automatically.
