Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Live App?
A Live App is a governed, interactive application built from a prompt. It is connected to live data, holds state, responds with context to the person using it, and can take actions based on data. Live Apps are enterprise-grade applications, auto-hosted in their own secure sandbox when built. Employees collaborate with Live Apps using a shared URL that persists, and governance and security is assured with permissions, RLS, CLS, and RBAC built-in.
How is a Live App different from a dashboard?
A dashboard shows you what happened and stops there. A Live App answers the follow-up question, runs what-if scenarios, dives deep on root cause across multiple data sources, and writes back to data sources. Live Apps can replace dashboards, memos, reports, and presentations, and can be molded to any analytics workflow, saving data teams from repetitive rework while providing business users with a fast, accurate, and trustworthy AI Analytics experience.
How long does it take to build one?
Minutes for the first working version. You describe the app in plain language, Wisdom AI builds it against your governed context, and accesses the secure data sources configured in a WisdomAI domain. Live Apps are easily refined from chat-based prompts or fine-tuned through direct edit and annotations at a widget-level.
How is this different from asking a general purpose AI tool to build an app?
A general-purpose AI tool has no persistent knowledge of your business context or data context, and works in a disposable, one-off way when it generates data visualizations or returns answers. As soon as those insights are delivered, they are instantly stale and waste token spend with every repeated query. Live Apps are generated on top of a governed and secure WisdomAI domain, so the context is already confirmed by your data team. Instead of hundreds or thousands of static, one-time data artifacts across an employee base, you can deploy a shared source of truth via governed, enterprise-grade Live Apps.
How do permissions work?
Live Apps inherit your existing entitlements. Row-level and column-level security, role-based access, and masking rules are enforced at the source, so two people opening the same app see only the data each is cleared for. Sharing an app never shares access to data.
How do I know the numbers are right?
Every answer in a Live App can be traced. Click through to see the query that produced a number, the tables it touched, and the metric definition it used. Accuracy comes from the Analytics Harness and Enterprise Context Layer.
Do we have to move our data?
No. Wisdom AI federates insights across data in-place. Live Apps query your data where it already lives, in your warehouse, lakehouse, or application databases. No extract, no replication, no second copy to secure.
