Have you ever tried to build a segment, an AI model, or a set of match rules and felt like your data was in a black box? You know the data is there, but you cant quite tell if there are any missing values or other silent data gaps, which can be costly in downstream usage. Considering the rate at which the volume and complexity of data increase across your organization, the lack of visibility can be debilitating. Unlocking that visibility in your data will eliminate guesswork, accelerate critical workflows, and promote confident decision-making. However, in order to activate this data, youre often required to switch between multiple tools or run complex queries to acquire basic insights. With that said, Im thrilled to introduce Data Lens, an interactive data exploration tool designed to provide fundamental visibility in your data.
