Connect AI to live Exact Online data, securely

Give your AI assistants, copilots, and agents direct access to your Exact Online data—no exports, no ETL, no waiting.

Using Connect AI for AI-powered Exact Online analytics, reporting, & actions

You have the data. It's accurate. It's valuable. But asking a simple question like "What's driving churn in Q2?" — still takes dashboards, analysts, and days. Connect AI changes that.

Natural Language Querying for Real Enterprise Data

Query Exact Online naturally. Answer precisely.

Let executives, PMs, and analysts use natural language to query live Exact Online data—without needing SQL, BI tools, or training.

Those questions you've avoided asking because the answer would require yet another reporting request? Ask them, and let AI help you explore your Exact Online data.
Ask questions that combine data across sources

Combine Exact Online data with data from other databases, data warehouses or other cloud apps — no pipelines required. Users can simultaneously blend data across multiple source systems, and produce the quantitative, descriptive, or historical analysis you need.
Secure data controls

Connect AI uses your existing authentication and your data access controls. No exposure, no shadow data, no exceptions. Users authenticate with their own credentials using the source's most trusted form of authentication to connect to the AI client. This ensures AI access respects the security and permissions your organization has already put in place.
Built for performance at scale

With query pushdown, parallel execution, and bulk operations, Connect AI delivers fast answers from even the largest orgs. Less time spent watching AI flash 'generating a response' equals faster analysis, deeper understanding, and overall better results.
