The Advanced Analytics AI Data Analyst is a report builder and analysis agent that can generate reports based on user prompts, identify data gaps, and build metrics and reports for users. The agent is also capable of deep analysis and reasoning, and based on its findings, recommends the next best action or how a user can execute a change.
