Tellius
Also known as: Tellius, Kaiya, Tellius Kaiya, Kaiya Architect, Agent Mode, Tellius Decision AI
Agentic analytics platform whose AI analyst, Kaiya, reasons across warehouse metrics and unstructured evidence in one governed workflow. Agent Mode plans and executes multi-step analysis (cohort, variance decomposition, root cause, causality) without manual setup, while Missions run always-on: define an objective once and Kaiya monitors data, investigates changes, and delivers finished outputs on schedule. Purpose-built configurable agents cover revenue monitoring or compliance, Kaiya Architect builds governed semantic layers conversationally, and why-analysis surfaces key drivers with behind-the-data summaries. Four-time Gartner Visionary; PepsiCo and eBay customers.
Tellius is an agentic analytics platform built around Kaiya, an AI analyst that reasons across warehouse metrics and unstructured evidence in a single governed workflow. Its Agent Mode delivers adaptive, multi-step agentic reasoning where autonomous agents plan and execute complex analytical workflows (cohort analysis, variance decomposition, root cause, correlation, causality) without manual setup, alongside Custom Workflows for user-defined reusable governed agentic flows. Kaiya 2.0 handles compound, multi-intent queries using Contextual Intelligence that understands joins, nested aggregations, and nuance, with automatic deduping and disambiguation. The platform's signature pattern is Missions: define an objective once and Kaiya continuously monitors data, investigates changes, and delivers finished outputs on schedule, so answers are waiting before the question is asked, complemented by ad-hoc natural language questions with full investigation, visualization, and drill-down. Teams configure purpose-built agents for specific business needs such as revenue monitoring or compliance tracking, each knowing its metrics, thresholds, and preferred outputs, and agentic flows orchestrate everything from data prep through visualizations to insights and narratives. Explainability runs through the why-question workflow: Kaiya detects intent, auto-selects relevant columns, highlights key drivers, visualizes insights, and surfaces behind-the-data summaries showing exactly what changed. Kaiya Architect adds an AI data modeling agent that builds governed semantic layers from raw warehouse data through a single conversation, removing the multi-week engineering bottleneck between business need and analysis, and universal search returns permission-aware artifacts. A four-time Gartner Visionary with PepsiCo and eBay among its customers and notable depth in pharma and CPG commercial analytics, Tellius sits in the enterprise decision-intelligence tier of the lane, distinguished by always-on investigative Missions rather than purely reactive question answering.
