How Data Agent Works
Data Agent is an intelligent question-answering and analytics platform for enterprise data assets. It turns business language into executable data queries and relies on agent-style reasoning to finish complex tasks. Built on top of ChatBI, it upgrades knowledge modeling, reasoning memory, and system integration so teams can achieve more with less configuration.
Product Positioning
- Unified access to multiple data sources: Connect mainstream databases, lakehouses, and APIs, then project scattered data into a single semantic space.
- Natural-language interaction: Allow business users to ask questions the way they talk to teammates. The system parses the intent, generates SQL automatically, and returns structured charts.
- Extensible agent framework: Plug-and-play tools (SQL, API, scripts, etc.) enable multi-step reasoning workflows for complicated analysis.
Core Capabilities
- Semantic modeling & context understanding: Build indicators, dimensions, and business-term mappings by subject area, and resolve intent with the help of conversation context.
- Intelligent execution chain: Identify intent, choose the right data source, generate optimized SQL/DSL, and stitch multiple steps when calculations, filtering, or aggregation are needed.
- Self-improving loop: Use feedback and logs to continuously refine prompts, model parameters, and semantic mappings, steadily improving hit rate and accuracy.
- Open integration: Expose APIs, web widgets, IM bots, and more so Data Agent can be embedded into DingTalk, Feishu, WeCom, or in-house portals.
Typical Scenarios
- Near-real-time executive dashboards and automated weekly/daily reports.
- Ad-hoc queries, campaign tracking, and retrospectives for business operations teams.
- Multidimensional drill-down, comparisons, and KPI monitoring for data analysts.
- Instant lookup of customers, orders, inventory, etc. for frontline teams like support and sales.
