AI-Powered Insights with Spotter

DataSpot includes Spotter, ThoughtSpot’s AI analyst, which allows users to ask complex questions in natural language. “With Databricks providing accessible data in real-time and ThoughtSpot offering AI-driven insights through natural language, we're moving from a low-information regime to a high-information one,” said Ben Vander Heide, Insight Delivery Analyst at Chevron. Spotter’s capabilities include multi-step reasoning, automated root cause analysis, and dynamic metric creation, unlocking deeper insights from Databricks data.

Its semantic layer integrates with Databricks Unity Catalog, automating metadata inheritance like joins and column descriptions. SQL Passthrough enables users to enrich ThoughtSpot Models with Databricks SQL, ensuring consistency and reducing manual setup for enterprise-scale analytics.

Performance and Embedded Analytics

Leveraging Databricks SQL and the Photon engine, DataSpot’s live query architecture delivers high-performance analytics without data movement. For developers, ThoughtSpot Embedded combines with Databricks’ tools like DLT and Lakeflow Jobs to build smart, monetizable data apps. Features like SpotIQ Change Analysis and AI Highlights enhance user engagement and product differentiation.

Industry Impact and Availability

DataSpot is available via Databricks Partner Connect, simplifying deployment and maximizing investment value. “With DataSpot, we’re bridging the gap between centralized data operations and decentralized business insight,” said Ketan Karkhanis, Chief Executive Officer at ThoughtSpot. This partnership empowers organizations to harness data and AI for faster, fact-based decisions.
