Alation launches chatbot for business data
Briefly

Chat with Your Data enables employees to ask natural-language questions about company data using metadata-aware agents that boost answer accuracy by about 60 percent compared with other AI tools. Each response includes explanations of how conclusions were reached plus visibility into underlying data, definitions, SQL queries, and model reasoning to increase trust in AI-generated insights. The solution queries data directly where it resides across any data system, avoiding migration, copying, and vendor lock-in. A knowledge layer of curated data products and comprehensive metadata provides business context that improves accuracy. Security enforces existing user permissions at dataset, table, column, and row levels. The product is in private beta with general availability planned later this year.
Alation introduces Chat with Your Data, an AI chatbot that allows employees to ask questions about company data in natural language. Thanks to metadata-aware agents, the solution promises 60 percent more accurate answers than other AI tools. With each answer, Chat with Your Data explains how it arrived at its conclusion. Users get full visibility into the data, definitions, SQL queries, and model reasoning behind the answers. This transparency helps build trust in AI-generated insights.
Alation outlines that too much time is wasted searching for information in dashboards, chasing analysts, or interpreting inconsistent metrics. Alation is now addressing this problem with Chat with Your Data. The big difference lies in the approach. Where other AI tools are often detached from the business context, Alation's solution uses a knowledge layer with curated data products and complete metadata from the Alation Data Intelligence Platform.
