Better business decisions with AI Analytics

How to get more from your data

Most teams only scratch the surface of what's possible with their data. Reports get buried in dashboards, exports pile up in spreadsheets, and critical insights never reach decision-makers. Filament changes that.

With Filament, your data is analyzed by an AI data analyst that understands plain English. Instead of struggling with complex BI tools or waiting for reports, you can instantly ask questions about revenue, marketing performance, customer engagement, or retention, and get clear answers in seconds.

Because Filament connects data across marketing, product, CRM, and finance systems, it helps you answer the bigger questions that traditional dashboards can't:

  • Which campaigns and channels actually drive revenue growth?
  • How does user engagement translate into pipeline or sales performance?
  • Where are we losing efficiency between acquisition, retention, and finance?

By combining AI-powered reporting, conversational dashboards, and cross-platform integration, Filament helps you move beyond surface-level metrics and uncover the insights that drive smarter, faster business decisions.

Enterprise-grade security

Complete data isolation, data encryption at rest and in-transit, and secure, accredited cloud providers keep your organisation's data protected. We never use your data for AI training or share it with third parties.
