For decades, organizations have sought to better use their data to inform decisions and drive better actions and outcomes. Data has become the lifeblood of companies, and AI now has the power to unlock it in radical new ways. The data paradigm has shifted—from dashboards and visual interfaces to AI-driven experiences.

We recently introduced our new agentic experience which includes out of the box agents for structured data analytics, unstructured knowledge, discover of anomies, and help & assistance along with our MCP server—enabling third party AI assistants to tap into Qlik’s power for custom-built AI solutions. This intelligent layer unifies data, agents, assistants, and platforms to deliver powerful analysis, to deliver powerful analytics, automate multi-step tasks, and achieve complex goals.

And of course, it’s underpinned by Qlik’s core strengths:

  • Trusted data products built from high-quality, governed data
  • Our unique analytics engine optimized for fast, incremental calculations supporting chain-of-thought reasoning
  • An open agentic architecture that allows both Qlik agents and third-party AI assistants to tap into the full range of Qlik capabilities

Now, we are bringing our agentic experience to life. With this launch:

  • Qlik Answers becomes your unified agentic AI assistant, reasoning across structured and unstructured data with the power of AI’s knowledge and capability to deliver insight, assistance, and automation.
  • Qlik MCP server delivers the power of Qlik to third-party AI assistants for building custom agentic solutions powered by governed data and our unique analytics engine.
  • Discovery Agent provides always-on anomaly and change detection, proactively surfacing meaningful, high-priority outliers and anomalies through a simple insights feed.
  • Data Products for Analytics extend data products and quality capabilities into the analytics workflow and strengthen the foundation for agentic AI.QlikProductUpdates_0-1770322202689.gif

 

A new agentic experience in Qlik Answers

As your AI assistant, Qlik Answers brings together structure data analytics, unstructured content, and general knowledge to reason through questions, tasks, and problems, deliver complete and relevant answers, and take actions to achieve goals.  

Understanding user intent, it engages our network of agents across Qlik to: 

  • Calculate analytics using our engine and rich semantic information contained in analytics applications

And, Qlik Answers remains simple, plug-and-play and fast to adopt. Simply connect assistants to analytics applications and knowledge bases, then sit back and Qlik will do the rest.  

 

Opening Qlik to all AI with MCP

While Qlik Answers provides plug-and-play capabilities for simple deployment, Qlik’s MCP server enables you to custom build complex AI solutions on top of Qlik’s powerful capabilities, underpinned by our trusted data products and analytics engine.

Qlik’s MCP server acts as the doorway between third-party AI assistants and trusted intelligence delivered by Qlik.

Through MCP, AI assistants can:

Never miss a critical change with Discovery Agent

Available March

Discovery Agent is Qlik’s new agent for anomaly and change detection, built directly on top of the Qlik analytics engine. 

Using our engine’s ability to evaluate large sets of dimensional combinations efficiently, Discovery Agent finds key outliers, ranks insights by significance, and delivers them through a simple feed and daily digest. Each insight includes clear explanation and context, helping teams understand what changed and where to focus. And you can easily open insights in Qlik Answers, for further explanations and context. 

Discovery Agent helps you stay on top of what’s changing by: 

  • Continuously scanning analytics applications for spikes, drops, trend shifts, new baselines, and data quality issues 
  • Evaluating significance so you get only meaningful, high-priority insights 
  • Summarizing changes in plain language so teams understand what happened immediately 
  • Delivering insights through a prioritized feed and digest that push information directly to users 
  • Allowing you to directly dive in using Qlik Answers for deeper analysis and investigation 

Discovery Agent shifts analytics from “pull” to “push”, actively monitoring performance and surfacing what matters most, so you can take action before it’s too late.
