Data Chat for App Viewers

User Problem

Users who interact with dashboards generated by Plotly Studio lack a direct, simple way to ask follow-up questions or gain deeper insights from the underlying data that may not be easily attained by viewing visualizations alone. They may need to know specific facts, understand trends, or get immediate answers related to the charts they are viewing without having to leave the application or consult a data specialist.

What Is It?

Data Chat for App Viewers is an intelligent, integrated capability designed to empower end-users with natural language querying against the data powering a Plotly Studio app. It acts as a data assistant, leveraging the structure of the data and the visualizations to provide context-aware, analytical responses.

What Does It Allow Users to Do?

Data Chat for App Viewers allows users to interact directly with the data powering their dashboards and charts through simple text input, enabling them to:

• Ask pointed questions about specific data points, segments, or filters present in the app.

• Request trend analysis for the charts they are reviewing, such as "What was the growth rate in Q3?" or "Identify any anomalies in sales data over the last six months."

• Generate immediate answers to analytical questions they have while reviewing a dashboard, providing instant clarity and reducing the need to manually manipulate data or build new visualizations.

• Obtain context-specific information related to a chart or dashboard, enhancing their data understanding and decision-making process.
