What is Qlik AI?
Qlik is an enterprise analytics platform known for its associative data engine — a unique approach enabling users to explore connections across an entire dataset rather than pre-defined hierarchical query paths. The engine shows both selected and excluded data, revealing hidden relationships traditional hierarchical BI misses. Qlik Sense is the cloud-first BI application with the associative engine, AI-assisted analytics, and drag-and-drop visualisation. Qlik AutoML provides no-code ML prediction for business analysts — building predictive models without data science expertise. Insight Advisor is the AI assistant enabling natural language questions and AI-generated chart suggestions. Qlik Data Integration provides real-time CDC data pipelines from databases to cloud platforms. Customers include Google, Samsung, and NHS.
How Qlik AI works
Qlik AI runs as llm assistant software built around data and text 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, ios, and android.
