Self-service BI and AI analytics on a code-defined semantic layer
Pros
- ✓ Metrics, models and dashboards are defined as code in AML with Git version control and pull-request review.
- ✓ The same semantic layer feeds dashboards, AI answers and embedded analytics, so numbers stay consistent across surfaces.
- ✓ The semantic layer can be queried from external tools such as Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor over MCP and APIs.
Cons
