SolutionsData & Analytics

Turn business questions into useful analysis.

Build AI agents that explore approved business data, compare performance and prepare charts, findings and reporting briefs. Connect the data and definitions they should use, and control how the results are shared.

Illustration of the featured workflow, Business data analysis, by the Business Data Analyst: a monthly performance analysis for February and March 2026, with February 2026 at €240k, March 2026 at €276k and a period change of +15%, +€36k; a bar chart of revenue in thousands of euros for Product A, Product B, Product C, Feb 2026 beside Mar 2026; and the largest numerical contribution, Product A accounting for €24k of the €36k increase, on gold arcs. Illustrative data; revenue in EUR, excluding tax.

Context for the numbers

Metric definitions and reporting scope made explicit.

Analysis your team can inspect

Charts, supporting figures and qualified findings.

Controlled access and sharing

Define what agents can retrieve and where reports can go.

02Workflows to explore

Put analysis to work across your organization.

Build agents around the questions your teams need to answer. Start with a performance review, an investigation or a recurring briefing, then define the inputs and boundaries the work requires.

  • Featured workflow

    Business data analysis

    Compare reporting periods, break down changes and prepare an explanation supported by the figures.

    Example output: Performance analysis with charts, figures and questions for further investigation.

    See the worked example
  • Example to configure

    Data-quality investigation

    Review approved profiling results or data summaries. Investigate incomplete periods, inconsistent categories and conflicting definitions.

    Example output: An issue brief with affected measures, evidence and questions for the data owner.

  • Example to configure

    Planning and what-if comparison

    Compare defined scenarios using supplied assumptions, available business data and configured calculation rules.

    Example output: A scenario comparison with its assumptions, calculations and limitations.

  • Example to configure

    Recurring management briefings

    Prepare regular performance briefings using agreed metric definitions and reporting guidelines. Highlight changes worth reviewing.

    Example output: A scheduled or system-triggered briefing with charts and notable changes.

Your workflow may be different. These are examples to configure around your data access, analytical procedures and reporting requirements. What-if comparisons are not forecasts.

03One workflow, in detail

Illustrative workflow

From a business question to an analysis your team can inspect.

Compare March with February. Break down the revenue change by product and region, then prepare a chart, supporting figures and a short briefing.

A static illustration. The panel is one picture of a fictional analysis over synthetic aggregate data; nothing here reads a live data store, and the figures are not a Zograph performance benchmark.

  1. Establish the question

    Check the metric definition, reporting periods and filters.

  2. Analyze approved data

    Retrieve permitted aggregates and compare products and regions.

  3. Prepare the analysis

    Create the chart, check the figures and qualify the findings.

  4. Control external sharing

    Request administrator approval before external distribution.

Monthly performance analysis, February and March 2026, revenue in eur, recurring and one-off entries included: February 2026 €240k, March 2026 €276k, period change +15%, +€36k. A bar chart of revenue in thousands of euros, Feb 2026 beside Mar 2026: Product A 100 and 124, Product B 80 and 88, Product C 60 and 64, with the same figures in a table whose changes read +24, +8, +4 and whose total reads 240, 276 and +36. What the figures show: +€36k, a 15% period increase; Product A contributes €24k, or two-thirds of the total increase, and Product B and Product C contribute €8k and €4k. Regional breakdown: Europe 144 to 168, +24; North America 96 to 108, +12. What needs investigation: these figures identify numerical contributions, not their business causes, and further evidence is needed to explain the changes. Metric: revenue excluding tax, no currency conversion, synthetic aggregate data only; not a Zograph performance benchmark.

Continue the analysis: “Now exclude one-off transactions.”
In the same illustrative fixture, recurring revenue changes from €220k to €248k.

04Permissions and approvals

Explore within scope. Share with the right authority.

Define what an agent can retrieve, create and share. Keep data access, analytical preparation and external distribution as separate decisions.

Illustration of two cards on gold arcs: the monthly performance analysis, an artifact prepared for review, and a request to send it to an external recipient, which creating the report does not authorize, marked administrator approval required.

Example policies for this workflow

ActionConfigured boundary
Read approved aggregate metricsAllowed
Create the analysis artifactAllowed
Revise the analysis artifactStanding grant
Send the report to an external recipientAdministrator approval
Export restricted row-level recordsDenied

An analysis can be ready while sharing stays pending.

The external distribution request waits for the required administrator decision.

This is a static illustration. No real report is sent and no approval is simulated.

These policies govern the configured tools and actions. They do not, by themselves, establish database row-level or column-level security.

05Analytical checks and the execution record

Check the analysis. Inspect how it was produced.

Evaluate the output against defined analytical expectations. Inspect the recorded steps behind retrieval, calculation, artifact creation and the decision to share.

Example fixture checks

Calculated against the synthetic data shown on this page.

  • Periods and filtersFebruary and March 2026; the same stated revenue scope.
  • Aggregate calculations€240k → €276k. Change: +€36k, or +15%.
  • Chart consistencyAll six bars match the product-level supporting figures.
  • Supported findingsProduct A contributes €24k of the €36k increase.
  • Metric definitionRevenue excluding tax, with recurring and one-off entries included.

Passing these fixture checks is not a guarantee that every generated analysis will be correct.

06Connected data and analytical context

Your data. Your definitions. Your reporting requirements.

Connect scoped analytical tools and provide the context that gives the numbers their meaning.

Illustration of the connected context: the analytics data store, reached via analytics data access, and the business definitions, a data dictionary and reporting guidance, joined by gold lines to the Business Data Analyst, whose three steps read understand the question, analyze approved aggregates, and prepare and check the artifact.

Scoped analytical access

Expose the approved aggregates and analytical operations needed for the task, through configured tools.

Metric definitions and data context

Provide business definitions and a data dictionary. Make the meaning and scope of a measure explicit.

Reporting guidance

Define the supporting figures, presentation and qualifications the analysis should include.

  • On demandAsk a question, inspect the analysis and refine the comparison.
  • On a schedule or from your systemsConfigure a Performance change review to prepare a briefing with charts and notable changes.

Trigger types are alternatives. Available data and actions depend on your configured connections and permissions.
