Building BI for Agents

As software evolves, the role of the user is shifting from humans to autonomous agents like Claude and Codex, which can perform tasks traditionally done by people, such as logging into tools, updating data models, and generating insights at a much faster pace. This transformation is evident in business intelligence (BI), where agents can now manage entire workflows—data modeling, exploration, and presentation—traditionally requiring a team of data engineers and analysts. Despite this shift, the existing infrastructure supporting human users, including data model SDLC, security, governance, and semantic layers, remains crucial for ensuring agents operate effectively and reliably. Cube is adapting to this change by enhancing programmatic access to its platform, allowing agents to interact with its semantic layer and perform tasks seamlessly, indicating a future where agents will increasingly handle BI operations while maintaining data integrity and trustworthiness.
