About Lightdash
Lightdash is a platform that supports business intelligence and analytics by connecting to dbt projects and data warehouses, then enabling AI agents to handle queries, dashboard creation, metric management, and semantic layer maintenance. The system processes natural language inputs or code-based instructions to generate charts, tables, dashboards, and updates while enforcing consistency through a governed layer. It facilitates tasks such as asking questions in Slack, automatically building visuals, refactoring metrics in code, embedding analytics, scheduling deliveries, and tracking usage. Additional functions include version control/CI/CD for BI assets, preview environments, alerting, and integrations for workflow automation, all via cloud or self-hosted deployment.
