Move from insight to action with Teradata Analyst Agent—designed for business and data analysts, with built-in telemetry for transparent, governable AI
About the Teradata Analyst Agent
The Teradata Analyst Agent enables business and data analysts to ask questions and explore data through a conversational interface, without needing to write code or build BI reports. The agent orchestrates complex SQL queries on the Teradata platform, performs iterative analysis, and surfaces supporting visualizations to help users understand patterns, trends, and outcomes faster.
At the core of the Analyst Agent is Agent Telemetry, developed by Teradata to capture execution details for every request – including performance, estimated cost, model usage, agent orchestration steps, and user feedback. This makes the agent's reasoning and behavior observable and auditable, replacing "black box" AI with a transparent, continuously improvable system. Customers can also configure quality signals to monitor based on their business priorities – such as detecting orchestration loops, identifying prompt weaknesses, or flagging hallucinated results – turning raw telemetry into actionable intelligence that improves agent performance over time.
