Last week, we launched Aleph Agent: AI that knows your finance data inside and out. Ask it a question in Slack, Teams, or the Aleph web app, and it responds with an answer grounded in your structured data.

Now, you can interact with Aleph Agent directly in dashboards. Build something from scratch, tweak what’s already there, or ask a question about what you’re seeing.

Here’s a snapshot of what it can do:

Build a dashboard from a prompt

Say you’re prepping for the Q2 board meeting. Coming out of Q1, the board asked for a new OpEx view—they want to see it broken out by region and how it’s trending over time.

You have the data, but how many charts do you want to show? And in what order? Should you add trendlines or callouts? Historically, you’d have to manually build and rebuild different views until you landed on the right combination.

Now, you can just tell Aleph Agent what you want to see. In seconds, you have a full dashboard—rooted in your structured data—that you can react to and refine.

Refine what's already there

Not every request requires starting from scratch. Most finance teams have a library of dashboards they update regularly—rolling forward for a new quarter, adding a new department, etc. But updating them can take anywhere from a few minutes to a few hours. And once you’ve made a change, you still need to check that everything ties out.

With Aleph Agent, all of these updates happen with a single prompt. Just tell it what you want to change, and it handles the rest, always using your governed financial data as its source of truth.

  • Break a chart out by department
  • Make two charts span the same date range
  • Standardize colors across the page

Plus, you can see the agent’s thinking and actions in the sidebar.

Answer questions in the moment

Spreadsheet models are easy to adjust on the fly—change a number on the assumptions tab and all the formulas update automatically.

Dashboards are rarely as flexible. Drilldowns and alternative views usually require a follow-up rather than an in-the-moment adjustment.

Aleph Agent changes that. If your CFO asks what’s driving the OpEx jump in your chart, just ask the agent in the sidebar. It returns a real answer based on your underlying data, using the dashboard you have open as context.

Instead of a sheepish “we’ll have to get back to you,” you can answer the question on the spot, keep the conversation moving, and show your CFO you know the numbers.

More to come

Frequently asked questions

Can I really build a dashboard just by prompting?

Yes. You can describe the view you want—like breaking OpEx out by department with a monthly trend—and Aleph Agent generates a full dashboard based on your connected data and existing models. From there, you can iterate with follow-up prompts instead of rebuilding from scratch.

How is this different from traditional BI dashboards?

Traditional dashboards are static. If you want a new cut, you usually have to rebuild it or request a follow-up. With Aleph Agent, dashboards become interactive. You can build new views, update existing ones, and ask questions—all without leaving the dashboard.

Can I update an existing dashboard without rebuilding it?

Yes. Aleph Agent lets you modify dashboards with simple prompts—like changing date ranges, breaking charts out by a new dimension, or standardizing formatting across the page. It applies those changes directly, without manual rework.

Can Aleph Agent answer questions about what I’m seeing?

Yes. You can ask questions directly in the context of a dashboard—like “What’s driving this increase?” or “Which departments are over budget?”—and get an answer on the spot. Because the agent uses the dashboard as context, you don’t need to re-explain what you’re looking at.

Can I trust the answers Aleph Agent gives?

Aleph Agent runs on your governed financial data layer. That means every answer is based on your actual data, your definitions, and your chart of accounts.

Does Aleph Agent replace dashboards?

No—it makes them more dynamic. Dashboards are still the way you present and share information. Aleph Agent makes them faster to build, easier to update, and more flexible to work with in real time.
