The future of analytics is shifting away from traditional dashboards, which have plateaued in adoption due to clutter, overwhelm, and lack of actionable insights. Instead, a new generation of analytics tools is emerging that focus on decision-centric workflows, powered by AI agents that can detect deviations, investigate causes, suggest actions, and automate follow-ups. These systems require a strong semantic foundation, such as Cube Cloud's universal semantic layer, to define business logic, ensure consistency, and govern data access. The goal is to propel users toward what to do next, rather than just presenting data, and to enable faster and more confident decision-making.
