What is Generative BI? And Why Does It Make Actionable Intelligence More Accessible for Organizations

In today’s fast-paced business environment, organizations often rely on multiple systems to run and maintain their operations, including ERP, PoS, CRM, and Cloud Data Warehouses. As the number of these systems grows, and the data they capture becomes increasingly complex, creating data models that fit business rules and consolidate information into a single repository is challenging.

Generative BI (GenBI) can revolutionize the data modeling process by automating the creation of schemas and documentation, saving organizations valuable time. By building a robust semantic layer and capturing useful metadata, Generative AI can establish connections across data sources and inform users where there may be gaps. We can add additional context layers with unique business rules on top of these models to ensure they fit your organization’s needs. In essence, if you have 50 tables containing master and transactional data, Generative AI can condense them into 2–3 actionable views, enabling intelligent insights.

The status quo often requires a team of data engineers several months to achieve this. However, with a B/eye workspace, you can operationalize data in just a couple of weeks, achieving a 24–26x ROI in time and resources saved. Data modeling and information consolidation are often major hurdles to gaining actionable intelligence from data. AI now automates many of these processes, democratizing access for companies that may not have deep technical expertise.

Once you’ve consolidated your disconnected data into a centralized repository with Generative BI, you can generate insights and intelligence on the fly. AI models can be trained in skills like SQL, Python, Data Explainability, Dashboard Creation, Anomaly Detection, and Forecasting. Through a conversational interface, organizations can build bottom-up analytical reporting tailored to users, their roles (C-suite, managers, analysts), and their relevant KPIs. Generative BI understands the context of who is asking the question, the question itself, and the robust schema it has access to. With just text, you can create highly performant dashboards and analytics in seconds.

In the traditional model, companies using tools like Power BI, Tableau, Looker, or ThoughtSpot often spend hours building reports. These are typically top-down reports consumed by all stakeholders without customization to the required level of granularity. With GenBI, you can obtain insights within seconds, generate SQL queries on the fly, and build dashboards that visualize the content with high accuracy.

Given the end-to-end nature of Generative BI, which handles everything from data ingestion to analytics creation, it can consolidate software stacks. With AI embedded throughout, it automates processes, and the platform’s intuitive nature ensures that business users can benefit without needing specific training. This drives value and significantly reduces costs and total cost of ownership.

In summary, Generative BI makes intelligence actionable for business users, removing the dependency on IT and data engineering teams for KPI reporting and analytics. GenBI enables self-service analytics and bottom-up reporting personalized for each user, with no need for coding or syntax knowledge — only natural language. In the coming months, platforms like B/eye will advance to prescriptive analytics, understanding the context of your organizational goals and identifying opportunities within the data, pushing actionable intelligence to platform users. For example, with B/eye, you can perform comparative data analysis from different time points, and our Data Explainability skill can summarize deltas, identify anomalies, and pinpoint potential opportunities. From there, decision points can be actioned within source systems, leading to an AI-powered workflow transforming data into actionable decisions through Generative BI.
