AI-Powered Insights Chat Platform for a Global Consumer Goods Company
Overview
A global consumer goods company wanted to give business teams instant access to sales and market insights without relying on analysts. Traditional dashboards required training, were slow to navigate, and could not answer follow-up questions. To solve this, an AI-driven Insights Chat Platform was developed, enabling users to ask natural language questions and receive ready-to-use insights within seconds.
