Ask Ella about your data or analytics
Ask a plain question about your operation and Ella reads the live records and answers directly — no report to build first.
Ask in plain language
The walkthrough opens on a question typed into Ella's chat the way you would ask a colleague who already has the numbers in front of them — no field picker, no report builder, no chart to interpret first.
She reads live records, not a stale export
Ella answers from the same records Analytics reads, scoped to what you actually asked — one facility, one team, one time window — so the number she gives back reflects submissions up to the moment you asked, not a report someone built last week.
- Live data — Reads current records, not a cached or exported snapshot.
- Right scope — Narrows to the facility, team or period the question implies.
- Shows her work — Points back to the records the answer is built from.
Drill down without leaving the chat
A number is rarely the end of the question. The tour shows a follow-up — break it down by site, show the records behind it — answered in the same thread, so you're not sent off to Analytics to rebuild the view yourself.
Turn it into a dashboard
If it's a question worth asking again, Ella offers to save it as a live board in your Analytics workspace, so the next time it's a click rather than a fresh question.
Why it matters
The gap between a question and an answer is usually where insight dies — someone forgets which report had the number, or the report is a week stale by the time they open it. Because Ella queries the same live records Analytics does, the answer is always current, and turning a good question into a saved board is how a one-off ask becomes something the whole team keeps watching.
