AI Data Analyst · Edinburgh
AI Data Analyst in Edinburgh
AI letting Edinburgh staff ask questions of company data in plain language. The appeal is obvious and the risk is specific — a confidently wrong number looks exactly like a right one, and unlike prose nobody reads a figure sceptically before putting it in a board pack.
Why this comes up
The problem
Every question about the numbers goes through one analyst. Simple queries wait days, and people make decisions on stale figures rather than asking again.
What you get
What we deliver
- A modelled data layer, since natural language over raw tables produces wrong answers
- Agreed metric definitions the assistant uses rather than deriving its own
- The generated query shown, so results can be checked rather than trusted
- Scope limited to data the person asking is entitled to see
- Uncertainty surfaced where a question is ambiguous rather than answered anyway
- A route to a human analyst for anything beyond straightforward querying

AI Data Analyst in Edinburgh — common questions
- How accurate is it?
- It depends almost entirely on the data model beneath it. Over well-modelled data with defined metrics, reliably good. Over raw tables where the assistant must infer how things join, it produces answers that look right and are not — which is the dangerous failure.
- Should it show the query?
- Yes, always. Someone technical can then verify the logic, and it makes wrong answers detectable rather than invisible. A tool returning only a number asks users to trust something they have no means of checking.
- Does it replace our analyst?
- No — it removes the routine questions from their queue. The judgement about which questions matter, whether a result makes sense and what to investigate next remains human work, and that is where analysts add most value anyway.
- What about access to sensitive data?
- It must respect the same permissions as any other route to that data. An assistant that answers salary questions for whoever asks is a serious problem, and permission filtering has to happen at query time rather than being requested in a prompt.
- Do you work with businesses across City of Edinburgh?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout Scotland, including Edinburgh and the surrounding City of Edinburgh area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Edinburgh businesses do you usually work with?
- Financial services and data-led work, plus seasonal systems that have to absorb enormous August load without falling over. Beyond that we work across Financial Services, Technology, Tourism, Higher Education and Data Science.
- Do you cover the areas around Edinburgh?
- Yes — we work throughout Scotland, including Glasgow. Edinburgh is an urban area of roughly 540,000+, and we take on work across the wider City of Edinburgh region rather than the city boundary alone.
