ADA is an open-source automated data analyst for operators who need answers without configuring a BI tool. Upload a CSV, XLSX, or XLSM file and ADA cleans it, detects its business schema, creates an interactive Plotly dashboard, flags anomalous periods, projects a guarded baseline forecast, explains material changes, recommends what to investigate next — and answers plain-English questions about the data with the calculation behind every reply.
It is designed for the simple use case analytics software often makes difficult: even a first-time user should be able to upload a spreadsheet and understand what is happening in the business.
