An analyst to investigate, build, and diagnose.
Zap AI Analyst produces what doesn't exist yet. Talk to it: give it a goal or a question and it builds the analytics, in one request. Ask it across your whole business model, not one report: "I'm meeting the CFO tomorrow. Give me a deep dive across finance, sales and purchasing, and the questions worth asking."
Zap AI works with Zap Data Hub.

Investigate
Investigate digs through the data to work out what happened in the business and how much it matters. It reports back. It never changes anything.
It follows the trail from the symptom to the cause on its own.
Why did margin fall? Four steps to the cause “Why did north margin fall?”
Four steps from the symptom to the cause, and it took every one itself.
All Investigate examples in the Cookbook“Why did north margin fall?”
Margin fell because cost rose. Cost rose because freight rose. Freight rose because one carrier put its rates up on one lane. Zap AI took all four steps without being asked, and a workbook you can download has one tab per step.
The carrier and the lane.
Build
Build makes new analytics. Three ways to start: show it a screenshot of what you want, let it ask you the questions a good analyst would, or point at a report you like and ask for another version.
It asks the questions a good analyst would ask before it builds.
Build a P&L, questions first “Build me a monthly P&L.”
It asks the questions a good analyst would ask. That's expertise, not hesitation.
All Build examples in the Cookbook“Build me a monthly P&L.”
Zap AI asks before it builds: which periods, actual or budget or variance, whether costs show as positives or negatives, which cost basis, whether to consolidate. Then it builds.
One of its questions, for example "Should intercompany be eliminated?"
Diagnose
Diagnose checks how a report is put together and finds what's wrong with it: a definition that's off, a cost counted twice. It checks the workings, not the business. It can find and fix issues on its own.
It finds the fault without a hint, and can fix it on its own.
Diagnose the fault, no hints “Proof this report.”
No hint. It found it on its own.
All Diagnose examples in the Cookbook“Proof this report.”
Zap AI goes through the whole report, finds the fault on its own ("Cost on these lines is negative: a returns credit was posted to cost, so margin shows over 100%.") and comes back with a proposed fix. Then it waits for you.
The proposed fix.
