Qlik is one of the three major enterprise business intelligence platforms alongside Tableau and Power BI, with a distinctive Associative Engine that allows analysts to explore data in any direction by clicking on values rather than only navigating pre-defined report hierarchies.
Qlik AutoML provides no-code predictive model building within the BI platform — a business analyst can select a prediction target and input features from their existing Qlik data and have AutoML train, evaluate, and deploy a prediction model that feeds back into Qlik dashboards. This brings predictive analytics capability to BI users without requiring separate data science tools.
Insight Advisor, Qlik's AI engine, generates natural language insights from dashboard data, highlighting significant trends, anomalies, and correlations that analysts might overlook. Conversational analytics allows asking questions in natural language with Qlik generating the appropriate analysis from connected data sources.
Qlik Generative AI connector allows embedding LLM capabilities into Qlik applications — generating natural language summaries of data states, enriching records with AI-generated text, and building conversational interfaces within Qlik analytics.
Qlik's strong position in Germany and Europe, combined with deep SAP integration through a dedicated SAP connector, makes it particularly strong for European enterprises running SAP environments. The platform is used by BMW, Estee Lauder, and Lenovo among many large enterprise customers.
Qlik AI runs as llm assistant software built around text and data workflows. Users typically start with a prompt, upload, or connected data source, and the underlying model handles the heavy lifting before returning a result you can refine or export. It's available on web and desktop, with API access for teams that want to embed it into their own products.
The capabilities that matter most for teams evaluating Qlik AI.
Multi-directional data exploration where clicking on any value highlights all related data across the dataset, enabling non-linear analysis that query-based BI tools cannot replicate.
No-code predictive model training within the BI platform — select target and input features, AutoML trains, evaluates, and deploys predictions back into Qlik dashboards.
AI-generated natural language insights highlighting significant trends, anomalies, and correlations from dashboard data that analysts might miss in manual review.
