Using Connect AI for AI-powered Workday 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 Workday naturally. Answer precisely.

    Let executives, PMs, and analysts use natural language to query live Workday 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 Workday data.
