Alli Generative Dashboards is an AI dashboard builder inside Alli. Describe what you want to see, or start from a sketch, screenshot, or template, and it builds an interactive dashboard on live, governed data. Anyone can create the view they need, and analysts can still add Python, SQL, or JavaScript for deeper logic.
A new question in a leadership meeting shouldn’t take two weeks to answer. In most BI workflows, it does, because every new view is a build.
Fixed dashboards are great for the questions planned in advance and slow for everything else.
A single chart in response to a query still needs someone to turn it into a narrative for leadership.
Every new view becomes another request for an already busy team, while last quarter’s dashboards sit untouched.
Build interactive dashboards from a question, a sketch, or a template, on live governed data, and keep refining them in conversation.
Ask a question or describe the visuals in plain English, like “build an executive summary with the top KPIs across media,” and the dashboard comes back with KPIs, charts, and filters.
For your teamLeaders walk into the review with the view they asked for that morning.
What is conversational analytics?Upload a whiteboard photo or an existing report, and Generative Dashboards rebuilds it as a working, shareable dashboard on your data.
For your team“Something like this” turns into a dashboard the team can use.
Set the date range and filters, read the KPIs, and drill into a chart for every question, with no BI experience needed. Ask for a different cut or a month-over-month comparison, and the dashboard updates.
For your teamBusiness users answer their own questions, and analysts get their week back.
A new question becomes a dashboard in minutes, while the decision is still on the table.
Teams refine a dashboard in conversation, so the view changes when the questions do.
Similar views stop getting rebuilt by hand, and analysts spend the hours interpreting the data.
Dashboards combine charts, context, and summaries, so leaders see what changed and why.
Who uses it
Get the view before the meeting, or during it.
Ask for the view you need and walk into reviews with a clear story about what changed.
Build the QBR in a sentence.
Build QBR and performance narratives with charts and summaries, without a multi-week build.
One dashboard for campaign, creative, and audience.
Track outcomes in a dashboard that changes with your questions, and use pro-code when a view needs real logic.
Keep governance in place.
Approved data connections and role-based permissions stay in your control while more people build for themselves.
Generative Dashboards run on the data Datasources brings in and the Semantic Layer defines, so a number on a dashboard matches every other report.
Advanced users can add Python, SQL, or JavaScript to a chart for custom calculations, deeper logic, or automation, on the same governed data.

Traditional BI and query-based analytics each do part of the job well. Generative Dashboards builds complete dashboards on demand, from a sentence, a picture, or code.
| Traditional BI (Tableau, Power BI) | Query-based analytics (ThoughtSpot) | Alli Generative Dashboards | |
|---|---|---|---|
| How a view gets built | A developer designs and builds it | You query, it returns an answer | You describe it, sketch it, or start from a template |
| New question | Wait for a new view | Ask, get a chart or number | Ask, get a full dashboard you can keep editing |
| Output | Fixed dashboards | Answers to specific questions | Visual narratives with charts, context, and summaries |
| Who can build | Specialists | Business users, for single answers | Anyone, with pro-code options for analysts |
| Data | Whatever the model was built on | Whatever is connected | Alli’s governed data, with role-based access |
More people build for themselves, and the data underneath stays approved, defined, and permissioned.

Every dashboard draws from Alli’s data foundation, using approved data connections and shared definitions.
Permissions control who can see which data, so nobody sees data they shouldn’t.
Python, SQL, and JavaScript sit alongside plain language for custom calculations and automation.
The ideas behind Generative Dashboards
How dashboards get built, how they stay governed, and how they fit with your BI tools.
Alli Generative Dashboards is an AI dashboard builder inside Alli. You describe what you want to see in plain English, or upload a sketch, screenshot, or template, and it builds an interactive dashboard on Alli’s governed data. Anyone can build without code, and advanced users can extend dashboards with Python, SQL, or JavaScript.
Yes. Type a request like “build an executive summary with the top KPIs across media,” and Generative Dashboards creates the dashboard with KPIs, charts, and filters. You can then ask for changes, such as a month-over-month comparison on one chart, and the dashboard updates. Nobody opens a chart editor or files a request.
No. Most dashboards are built entirely in plain language or from a sketch, screenshot, or template. Analysts who want more control can embed Python, SQL, or JavaScript for custom logic, calculations, or automation, so the tool works for business users and technical users alike.
Tableau and Power BI are strong for structured reporting once data models and views are built. Generative Dashboards builds new dashboards on demand from natural language and visual inputs, which reduces dependency on a reporting backlog. Many teams keep their BI tool for standardized reporting and use Generative Dashboards for new questions and narratives.
Yes. Every dashboard draws from Alli’s governed data foundation, using approved data connections and shared definitions. Role-based permissions control who can see which data, so more people can build dashboards without anyone seeing data they shouldn’t. Data and IT teams keep control of sources and access.
Yes. Vision-based discovery turns a whiteboard sketch, a screenshot of an existing report, or a template into a working, interactive dashboard on your data. It’s the fastest way to go from “something like this” to a dashboard the team can use, and you can keep refining it in conversation.
Data Explorer is for investigating data: slicing, filtering, and asking follow-up questions. Generative Dashboards is for building and sharing views: executive summaries, campaign trackers, and QBR narratives. Many teams find the answer in Data Explorer and turn the view they keep returning to into a dashboard.
Start with the dashboard request that’s been sitting in the queue the longest, or the executive summary your leadership asks for every week. Describe it in a sentence and see what comes back. Once the team sees a request turn into a dashboard in minutes, the backlog starts clearing itself.
Book an intro and bring the dashboard request that’s been stuck in the queue. We’ll build it with you, live, on your data.
