Built-in agents · Analysis
Which analytics tools have scheduled AI agents?
8 of 15 tools do, according to their public docs, and 2 partly.
Yes: Databricks, Snowflake, Omni, Hex, Sigma, Looker, Tableau, Power BI. Partly: BigQuery, Metabase.
The question we asked: Can the product’s AI or an agent rerun a defined analysis on a schedule or trigger and deliver a fresh result or alert?
Grading standard
The product’s AI or an agent can rerun a defined analytical task on a schedule or trigger and deliver a fresh result or alert without a person present. An ordinary report or dashboard schedule that the AI or an agent does not run does not count, and an AI that only sets up such a schedule is partly.
