We acquired Mode Analytics so you can ditch static dashboards for Generative AI.

Earlier this year, I spoke at Beyond 2023 about the power of language. Free-flowing natural language is the most simple, powerful, and elegant user interface humans have ever invented. It makes the combined potential of generative AI and business intelligence so exciting.?

You don't have to speak code to get insights. Just ask your question and watch the pretty data charts appear before your eyes like magic.?

At least, that's what self-service analytics should feel like.?

Those of us who have ever used a legacy BI tool like Tableau know that's not the case. And those data teams who work behind the scenes to hand-build the worksheets and tables to try and answer business user questions see the nightmare of never-ending dashboard reporting.?

I'm happy to share that we can wake up from the nightmare today. And it starts with our $200M acquisition of Mode, the modern Business Intelligence (BI) platform.?

Many of you are probably familiar with Mode. They're a darling in the data space and beloved by data teams at companies like Doordash, Shopify, Lyft, VMWare, and Conde Nast because of the code-first approach they deliver for analytics.?

Code-first means speed. It means flexibility. It means power.?

But the modern data experience is also about accessibility, and that's where ThoughtSpot's intuitive search and AI-driven platform comes in to create a match made in analytics heaven.?

Archaic data visualization tools like Tableau have held your data teams back for too long. With this acquisition, we're giving data teams and business users the tools they need to efficiently and quickly turn data into insights and those insights into actions, reforging BI in the fires of generative AI in the process.?

Want to be code-free for your business users? Go ahead. Want to be code-first for your analytics engineers? Be our guest. With ThoughtSpot and Mode together, there's no limit to how you bring generative AI-powered analytics to your organization or customers.?

As we work to integrate our two products, here are a few of the capabilities we're most excited about:?

• An expanded data workspace. Integrating Mode will significantly accelerate and expand ThoughtSpot's data workspace with its world-class SQL IDE and connected Python and R notebooks for advanced analysis.
• Advanced data visualization. With Mode's visual explorer, analysts, and data professionals can visually explore more dimensions of their data to build queries, giving these teams an easy way to go from code to visualization seamlessly as they iterate.
• Enhanced collaboration. ThoughtSpot's natural language search and Mode's code-first experience will make it easier for business users and data analysts to collaborate and share insights, driving efficiency and improved decision intelligence.
• AI-powered exploration for data teams. With Mode, ThoughtSpot will speed up the development of charting and liveboard AI assistants, enabling users to effortlessly configure and edit charts using natural language while also providing richer visualization, reporting, and charting options to meet and exceed the capabilities of leading dashboarding tools Tableau and PowerBI.
• Superior pivot table and spreadsheet chart types. By integrating Mode, ThoughtSpot can deliver more spreadsheet and pivot table functionality, giving users the same experience they get with other cloud spreadsheet BI vendors and access to the broader ThoughtSpot platform.
• Access to SQL Co-pilot: Data analysts can write SQL more efficiently by applying large language models to Mode's vast learning center and code repository.?
• Robust, reusable data models. These finished datasets can be served to any business user, from executives to frontline decision makers, so anyone can ask data questions, get answers, and take action without writing a single line of code.?

No more wondering where that next report is or how you'll free up your data team to pursue more strategic initiatives. Now is the time to throw everything you thought you knew about business intelligence out the window and get laser-focused on maximizing value from your investments in the modern data stack with us.
