Who can use this feature?

  • Users

Available on:

  • All Culture Amp subscriptions that include People Analytics

Explore Data provides a chat-like interface that allows you to easily explore metrics and gain insights within the People Analytics (PA) platform. Users can ask both organizational and general questions related to people analytics and receive clear, summarized answers.

Key Benefits

Explore Data offers the following benefits:

  • Efficient Data Exploration: Quickly access key metrics and insights within the PA platform.

  • Intuitive, Chat-Based Experience: Interact in a familiar, chat-like interface that makes it simple to explore data.

  • Comprehensive Knowledge Base: Gain access to PA’s extensive resources, including academic articles, blog posts, and more.

How to Access Explore Data

  1. Navigate to any page on the People Analytics part of the Culture Amp platform.

  2. Click the Explore Data button located in the bottom right corner of the screen.

  3. A chat panel will open with suggested prompts and an input area where you can type your query.

How to Use the Explore Data Feature

Once the chat panel is open, you can start exploring data. Here’s how:

Metrics

Ask questions related to specific metrics, such as:

  • “What’s the turnover rate?”

  • “What’s the turnover rate in Marketing?”

  • “What’s the turnover rate in Marketing in the last 30 days?”

Response Includes:

  • A text summary (up to 100 words)

  • A time stamp

  • Optional filters (if the prompt included department, location, team, gender, etc.)

  • A graph visualizing the data (see screenshot: Example of metric graph)

  • Suggestions for exploring metrics, insights and knowledge base.

For example, asking about specific metrics like "number of starters," providing time frames (e.g., "starters last week"), or specifying categories (e.g., "female number of starters") will yield responses with those metrics. If your question doesn't match any available metrics, Explore Data will pull an answer from the Knowledge Base.

Insights

Ask questions that seek deeper insights, such as:

  • “Is there a pay gap in my organization?”

  • “Is there a pay gap in Marketing?”

Response Includes:

  • A text summary

  • An Insight Card linking to the detailed insight (see screenshot: Insight card example)

  • Suggestions for exploring metrics, insights and knowledge base.

Note: Unlike metrics, insights do not show time stamps or filters in the response, but these factors are still considered if mentioned in the prompt.

Knowledge Base

For general questions, such as:

  • “How can I decrease turnover rate?”

  • “What are the consequences of a significant pay gap?”

Response Includes:

  • A text summary

  • Up to 5 external links for further reading about the topic.

  • Suggestions for exploring metrics, insights and knowledge base.

This section is especially useful for "How to" or "What does it mean" queries. If your question doesn't align with available metrics or insights, the answer will be drawn from the Knowledge Base.

Known Limitations

Please keep in mind the following limitations:

  • Metric Cards: Explore Data does not currently display metric cards in responses.

  • Session History: Threads are not stored. Once your session ends, you won’t be able to access previous chats.

  • Conversation Scope: The chat is limited to analytics and data exploration—free-form answers or general conversations outside of this scope are not supported.

Final Tips for Using Explore Data

  • Be specific: When asking about metrics, include clear time frames or categories (e.g., “turnover rate last month” or “female turnover rate in Sales”).

  • Explore further: Each response provides suggestions for deeper insights and additional resources—don't hesitate to dive in!
