Qlik Answers is now even faster

[Sonja_Bauernfeind]

We've made an update to Qlik Answers that delivers faster responses to your questions. See What's New in Qlik Cloud for the announcement.

What changed

The Data Analyst Agent in Qlik Answers now handles semantic search, expression building, and chart generation within a single, unified flow. When you ask a question, the Answers Agent and the Data Analyst Agent work together to deliver your response, and you'll see both reflected in the interface as Qlik Answers responds.

The practical effect: Qlik Answers can take your question, figure out what to search for, build the right expression, and generate the right visualization in a single connected process rather than as separate steps. Complex questions, the kind that involve comparisons across dimensions, multiple measures, or specific time periods, benefit the most because the agent can hold the full shape of your question in mind while deciding how to answer it.

See it in action

Here's an example of how the same question flows through Qlik Answers. Previously, the response involved several specialized agents handing work back and forth. With the updated architecture, the question is resolved through a more direct flow, and you'll see the response come back faster.

Try it yourself! Ask any question you often repeat, especially one with comparisons or multiple parts. You'll notice Qlik Answers gets to the response faster.

What this means for you

You will see the difference the next time you open Qlik Answers, but everything else you rely on in Qlik Answers (your data, your spaces, your permissions, or the way you ask questions) will continue to work exactly as it did before the update went live.

What's next

We'll continue to evolve how the agents work as we add new capabilities, and we'll keep sharing what's changing along the way.

We'd love to hear how the updated experience feels in your day-to-day use. Reach out to your Qlik contact or share your thoughts in the community.
