Inspiration
SaaS companies constantly face a triple challenge:
- Sustaining revenue growth
- Minimizing customer churn
- Maintaining customer experience (CX)
We wanted to build a tool that goes beyond static reporting by combining a semantic layer, natural-language Q&A, and business storytelling. Our goal: Make executives feel like they have a concierge agent for KPIs, always ready to answer questions and highlight risks.
What it does
The Agentic KPI Concierge Dashboard unifies Revenue, Churn, Support, and Targets into one semantic-driven model:
- Provides executive summary KPIs (Total Revenue YTD, Churn Risk, Avg CSAT, Ticket Volume).
- Exposes Ask a Question (Q&A) with suggested prompts like “Churn risk by product” or “Revenue gap vs target.”
- Visualizes trends and gaps (Revenue by region/product, Churn by plan, Support vs CSAT).
- Embeds narrative insights + business impact so leaders can move from data → decisions quickly.
How we built it
- Data Modeling
- Cleaned and joined datasets for revenue, churn, CSAT, and ticket volume.
- Built a semantic layer with key dimensions (Region, Product, Month) and metrics (MRR, Targets, Churn Risk, CSAT).
- Dashboard Development
- Used Tableau Next to create KPI cards, visualizations, and narrative containers.
- Added Ask Data / Q&A panel with domain-specific starter questions.
- Used Tableau Next to create KPI cards, visualizations, and narrative containers.
- Business Storytelling
- Linked each visual to problem-insight-impact, making the dashboard both analytical and persuasive.
Challenges we ran into
- Filters: Adding Region/Product/Month filters globally wasn’t straightforward due to Q&A/semantic constraints.
- Ask Data Panel: Although enabled, some Q&A features were grayed out or inaccessible.
- Time constraints: Couldn’t add predictive ML churn modeling, which would have boosted foresight.
- Design balance: Keeping dashboards clean but still information-rich required iteration.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
- Integrated Q&A natural language directly in dashboards with “starter prompts.”
- Created narrative business insights inside Tableau, rarely done in typical BI projects.
- Identified a clear $3.2M annual uplift if churn in Standard plans is reduced by just 10%.
- Designed a multi-page executive → detail drilldown experience: Executive Summary, Revenue Insights, Churn Insights, Support, and Targets vs Actuals.
What we learned
- How to blend semantic modeling + visualization + business narrative into one solution.
- That churn and support tickets are tightly correlated with CSAT, and framing that insight in dollars resonates with decision-makers.
- Hackathon dashboards need both analytical accuracy and storytelling creativity to stand out.
What's next for Agentic KPI Concierge
- Add interactive filters (Region, Product, Month) across all visuals.
- Integrate predictive churn modeling (ML-based) to anticipate retention risk.
- Expand Q&A library with deeper semantic definitions for executives.
- Enable real-time data refresh and exportable narrative reports.
- Explore generative AI summarization of KPI insights.
