Hey Joël. Yes, SAS Viya Copilot can help you explore and understand your data through conversational AI. You’ll need to load your data into a dashboard, but you don’t have to fully build out the dashboard to start using conversational insights. Once the data is available, you can ask Viya Copilot questions, run statistical analyses, and get clear explanations directly in the chat experience.
