Orion AI is an advanced Large Language Model (LLM) assistant integrated into Datazone’s Intelligent Apps. It enables users to ask natural language questions about their dashboards and data, making analytics more accessible and interactive for everyone—no SQL or technical expertise required.

​
What is Orion AI?

Orion AI is a chatbot assistant that leverages state-of-the-art LLMs (such as GPT-4O and Claude) to help you:

  • Understand your dashboards: Ask questions about any chart, metric, or filter in your Intelligent App.
  • Perform data analysis: Get instant insights, summaries, and explanations about your data.
  • Discover trends and anomalies: Let Orion AI highlight important changes or outliers in your data.
  • Learn how to use the platform: Ask for help with features, navigation, or best practices.

Orion AI is always context-aware. When you use it on an Intelligent App page, it automatically receives the app’s metadata and configuration, so its answers are tailored to your current dashboard and data context.

Why Use Orion AI?

  • No technical skills required: Anyone can ask questions in plain English (or other supported languages).
  • Faster insights: Skip manual exploration—just ask Orion AI for what you need.
  • Guided analysis: Orion can suggest next steps, deeper dives, or related metrics to explore.
  • Customizable behavior: App creators can set custom instructions for Orion AI using the llm_instruction field in the app’s YAML config, tailoring the assistant’s tone and focus for each dashboard.

​
How It Works

  • On any Intelligent App, look for the Orion AI chat interface.
  • Type your question (e.g., “What is the sales trend for the last quarter?” or “Why did revenue drop in March?”).
  • Orion AI will analyze your app’s metadata, charts, and filters, and respond with a relevant, data-driven answer.
  • If the app creator has provided a custom instruction (via llm_instruction), Orion will follow those guidelines in its responses.

​
Supported LLM Models

Orion AI can use the following LLMs (set via the llm_model attribute in your app config):

  • GPT_4O
  • GPT_4O_MINI
  • CLAUDE_35_SONNET
  • CLAUDE_35_HAIKU
  • CLAUDE_37_SONNET

​
Customizing Orion AI

To customize Orion’s behavior for your app, set the llm_instruction field in your YAML config:

config:
  llm_model: GPT_4O
  llm_instruction: "You are a helpful assistant for sales analytics. Always explain trends simply."

​
Configuration Options

In addition to llm_model and llm_instruction, you can also use these optional config options:

  • hide_llm: (Optional) Hide the LLM assistant (Orion AI) in the app UI
  • hide_insights: (Optional) Hide the Insights panel in the app UI

Orion AI makes data analysis conversational, intuitive, and accessible—empowering every user to get more from their data.
