What Is a Data Agent?

# What Is a Data Agent? A data agent is software that can automatically find answers by searching through your company's information, asking follow-up questions, and presenting results—think of it as a smart assistant that works with your data instead of a human analyst. Rather than you having to know where specific information lives or how to pull it together, the agent does that legwork for you. This matters because it could save your team hours spent digging through spreadsheets and databases to answer business questions.
