Break Through the Data Wall: A Product Spotlight on AI-Powered Analytics

September 10: Product Spotlight Livestream

Legacy analytics are limited—tied to BI platforms instead of being built into your products, locked in dashboards rather than in the hands of leaders, and restricted to structured data. As AI makes these limitations clearer, it's time to break through and get agentic intelligence into the hands of everyone.

If you’re building products that need intelligent analytics or leading teams that demand smarter decisions, join our Product Spotlight Livestream on September 10 to see how you can break through the critical barriers of legacy BI and get real ROI from your data.

You'll learn how to:

• Embed on-brand, agentic intelligence directly into your product experience.
• Connect all your data—structured or unstructured—within AI agents.
• Deploy agentic intelligence into any platform for limitless possibilities.
• Build trust with a semantic layer that powers your boundaryless analytics.

Get ready for a packed agenda you won’t want to miss. The day kicks off with Stephen (Steffin) Harris is sharing his vision for the future of boundaryless data. Then, Ivan Seow and Katie Paxson Flynn take the stage to unveil groundbreaking product announcements, including embedded analytics and the next-gen Spotter Agent. Experience it all in real time with live demos from Nicolas Rentz and Katie, showing boundaryless analytics in action. You’ll also hear a customer spotlight featuring leading organizations that are transforming their products with agentic analytics. And to close it out, Francois Lopitaux will reveal how custom agents unlock limitless possibilities for the future of data and AI.

In addition, you’ll hear how leaders, including Aria Moshari from Verisk , gave 9,000 employees access to trusted insights and eliminated 30,000 manual report requests—freeing teams to make smarter decisions, faster ⚡ This is your chance to finally leave old-school BI tools behind and get the speed, scale, and momentum your business needs.

Breaking Free from the BI Backlog: Why We’re Ditching the Dashboard Bloat

Let’s be honest—traditional BI hasn’t kept up.

Instead of helping teams move faster, it’s burying insights in dashboards, locking answers behind backlog requests, and serving up stale data that’s already irrelevant. This isn’t just frustrating—it’s a blocker to growth.

At ThoughtSpot, we’re not here to add another layer of complexity. We’re here to end it. That’s what “BI without the BS” is all about: eliminating the bottlenecks and bloated workflows that hold your business back.

How We’re Building a Better Way

Our platform is designed for speed, clarity, and action—no fluff, no filler.

• Spotter: The AI Analyst – Ask questions in natural language and get instant, accurate answers. No dashboards, no SQL, no waiting.
• Agentic Analytics – With AI Agents, Augmented Dashboards, and Automated Insights, our tools adapt in real time to your business context.
• Transparent AI – Our AI doesn’t just give answers—it explains them. So your team can trust what they’re seeing and act with confidence.

Make the Upgrade

As our CMO Micheline Nijmeh shared in her latest blog, The New Standard for AI-Driven Decisions, we’re raising the bar on what modern analytics should be: fast, flexible, and built for the way teams actually work today.

We’re not asking you to tweak what you’ve got. We’re urging you to upgrade—to something smarter, faster, and actually built for the pace of business today.
