BI meets AI. Real use cases that work

Speed to insight wins. If analytics cannot move decisions, it gets ignored.

Fresh off Big Data London, I sat down with Clarence Rozario, Zoho on The Ravit Show to talk about how leaders are pushing BI to deliver real outcomes. The energy was high and the message was clear. Make analytics the shortest path from question to action.

Why I rate Clarence as a leader: he blends field reality with product thinking. He listens to customers, trims what is not working, and ships the bits that help teams decide faster. No hype. Clear priorities. Tight feedback loops.

What we discussed:

* How enterprises are standardizing definitions so everyone answers the same question the same way

* Cutting the cycle time from a metric to the next step with guided drill downs and clear ownership

* Putting AI inside BI to explain changes in plain language and suggest actions people can trust

* Short term moves that matter right now, like ready to use templates, guardrails, and monitors

We kept it practical. Less demo polish. More ways to ship value this quarter.
