Q1We already have Tableau/Power BI or a similar BI tool. What does DataGenie do that they don’t?
They stay your reporting layer. What changes is who does the looking — a dashboard shows what you asked it to show, so someone has to suspect a problem first. DataGenie runs that search itself, continuously, across every combination of your metrics and dimensions.
Q2We already have a data stack and an AI assistant. Where does DataGenie sit in my enterprise architecture?
Inside your own cloud, above your data and below everything that consumes it. It reads your warehouse in place, leaves BI as the reporting layer, and exposes metrics, context and insights over MCP and a secure API — so your AI assistant and your own applications draw from it. You also gain one definition per metric, in one place.

Q3Our teams already point Claude or Gemini at our data and that’s working. Why do I need DataGenie?
Point a model straight at your data and three things happen: it rescans your tables for every question, so cost climbs; it writes a different query each time, so the same question can return two answers; and it only sees the slice it can scan. With DataGenie in between, it reads an answer already computed — once, identical every run, and against years of how your business behaves.

Q4How does DataGenie know anything about our business?
From four places: Value Packs carry your domain’s KPIs, dimensions and reading rules; DocuFeeder reads your SOPs and process docs; Context MCP connects your systems of record; and Business Events is a calendar for what’s in no system — an outage, a promotion. So when a number moves, DataGenie can read the open ticket that explains it and give you the number and the reason together.
Q5What if our problem isn’t one of the Value Packs you list?
Then we write one with you. Every pack is made from the same parts — KPIs, dimensions, transformation rules, and the domain rules for reading them.
Q6What are the top two differentiators DataGenie boasts of?
Autonomous insights at scale — it tracks every combination of your KPIs and dimensions, not a shortlist someone had to pick, and connects them across sources without ETL. Nothing waits for someone to ask.
Deterministic insights — detection and contribution analysis are mathematics, not generation, and no raw data reaches a language model. Ask the same question twice and the number doesn’t move.
Q7Data security is very important for us. Where does DataGenie run, and what leaves our environment?
In your own environment — your cloud on AWS, Azure or GCP, or your own data centre — on Kubernetes in a private subnet. Nothing leaves: no raw rows are stored, and only aggregated KPIs and dimension values reach a language model. Access is role-based, with SSO and secrets in your own key vault.
Q8We can’t spend much time on a PoC. How long does it take, and what do you need from us?
Our PoC process is consciously designed light on your side. The product does the heavy lifting.
Two months, four phases. Weeks 1–2 you provision read-only access, name one business owner to read the output, and we agree the success criteria together. Weeks 3–4 we deploy into your environment, read your sources in place and onboard the Value Pack. Weeks 5–7 briefs arrive unprompted on your real data and you assess them against the criteria. Week 8 is a clear met / not-met readout and the path to production.
Q9We’re on-prem. Will DataGenie work for us?
Yes. DataGenie runs on Kubernetes, and that’s the same shape in your own data centre as in a cloud VPC — the platform, its services and its storage all sit inside the cluster.
