Taking Business Intelligence to the Next Level

Today’s data-driven businesses are making faster, more accurate decisions based on facts rather than perception. But to become truly data-driven, businesses need a platform that fully leverages all their data. Many organizations have discovered that their current business intelligence platforms are incomplete and not fit for purpose. This leaves them stuck in the past, making slow decisions, no decisions, or worse, bad decisions.

The Pyramid Decision Intelligence Platform changes that. It empowers people with augmented, automated, and collaborative insights that simplify and guide the use of data in decision-making. It combines governed self-service analytics with artificial intelligence (AI) and brings data prep, business analytics, and data science together into one frictionless platform. Providing users with insights for timely and effective decision-making – that is Decision Intelligence.

AI lowers the skills barrier by automating the highly technical work needed to prepare and analyze data and create and share reports and dashboards. By lowering the skills barrier, it empowers anyone – from the C-suite to the frontline – to integrate faster, more intelligent decision-making into their organization.
