  • The Impact of Generative AI on Business

    This is an exciting and transformative time for AI. With the rise of generative and agentic AI, organizations face new opportunities—but what is the real business impact? This survey examines your company's experience with these technologies and the impact they have had so far.  We’re interested in how your organization is currently using generative AI, either by consuming prebuilt tools (consumer model) or by building, embedding, or customizing generative AI models and capabilities, particularly with your company data (builder model).

  • State of Self-Service 2025

    The idea of self-service data and analytics has been popular for many years. Self-service in data and analytics typically refers to providing tools and capabilities that allow non-technical users (e.g., business users, analysts, citizen data scientists) to access, analyze, visualize, and act on data without needing continuous help from IT or centralized data teams. It is a way to achieve democratization. This survey asks questions about your organization’s current strategies and successes with self-service. It is geared towards those who support and utilize self-service in their company. Take Survey
