Current Capabilities
Interface: Slack
The AI Analyst is currently available in Slack. You can ask questions in your SourceMedium channel or via direct message.Functionality: Ad-Hoc Questions
Today, the AI Analyst handles on-demand questions — you ask, it answers. This includes:- Straightforward queries: “What was our revenue last week?”
- Complex analysis: Open-ended questions that benefit from multiple analytical perspectives
- Definitions & schema: “What is LTV?” or “Which table has order data?”
- Diagnostics: Data Health and Attribution Health checks
For complex questions, the AI Analyst automatically engages Deep Analysis Mode, exploring your question from multiple angles before synthesizing a comprehensive answer.
