What Actian AI Analyst is

Actian AI Analyst lets teams question governed business data in plain language and receive verified answers, reports, and continuous monitoring. Users can ask follow-up questions without writing SQL, while the Steward Agent builds and maintains models, metrics, glossary terms, and relationships from existing data assets. Responses expose joins, filters, and metric calculations, and access can be limited to approved models, dimensions, and measures. The service creates structured reports with summaries, charts, findings, recommendations, and business context, plus recurring KPI and anomaly monitoring. It runs on curated, modeled warehouse data, so operational data must first pass through ETL or ELT pipelines. Connections include warehouses, dbt projects, documentation, and metadata systems, with access through the web app, Slack, Microsoft Teams, and API on Scale and Enterprise. Starter costs $499 a month or $5,950 a year and includes 200 messages for 10 users. A 14-day trial requires no credit card.
