Open source Lightdash gets Accel’s backing to bring AI to business intelligence
Open source Looker rival Lightdash has raised $11M and launched a new product that allows teams to train "AI analysts" on their own data.
Also, the AI analyst largely doesn’t require access to customers’ actual data, Chaudhary added, as it relies on the metadata such as a metric’s title and description for the majority of its analyses. Moreover, Chaudhary says that customers are able to select their preferred LLM provider, including the likes of OpenAI and Anthropic, while they can also use their own model, which should appease any lingering concerns about opening access to sensitive company data. Today, Lightdash claims a global spread of 13 employees split between Europe and the U.S., and with its fresh cash injection, the company said that it’s looking to expand its team and product, including new features along the lines of what it’s introducing now with its AI analysts.
