Zenlytic FAQ: Intelligent Analytics You Can Trust
Zenlytic is your trusted AI data coworker, delivering transparent, explainable analytics with real depth. Built for trust, governance, and clarity, Zenlytic turns AI into a reliable partner for confident, data-driven decisions. Here are some frequently asked questions, with answers. Part 1.

1. What makes Zenlytic different from black-box AI tools?
Most AI analytics tools operate as black boxes, giving answers without showing how they were generated. Zenlytic is built for transparency: every answer includes the filters, metrics, and definitions used. With traceable lineage and audit trails, you can always see why a number is what it is.
2. Why is trust so important in AI analytics?
Trust is the foundation of data-driven decision-making. If leaders don’t believe the numbers, they won’t act on them. Zenlytic builds trust through explainable answers, warehouse-first governance, and consistent results, ensuring that every user, from analysts to executives, can make confident, informed decisions.
3. How does Zenlytic provide depth in analytics, not just surface-level answers?
Many AI tools stop at giving a single number. Zenlytic enables deep exploration: you can drill into the “why,” explore “what-if” scenarios, and uncover the drivers of performance, instead of a shallow snapshot. Zenlytic powers strategic depth.
4. What is the Clarity Engine?
The Clarity Engine is Zenlytic’s core AI system, ensuring consistency, accuracy, and transparency. It combines explainable logic, lineage tracking, and Memories to provide repeatable and reliable answers, solving the trust gap in AI-powered business intelligence.
5. What are Zenlytic Memories?
Memories are Zenlytic’s unique feature that remembers your preferred definitions, methods, and approaches. Unlike black-box LLMs, which often produce inconsistent results, Memories make sure your analytics are stable, repeatable, and aligned to your business context.
6. When did Zenlytic launch Memories?
Memories launched in 2025 as a breakthrough in AI analytics. Since launch, Memories have powered thousands of questions daily across Zenlytic’s customers, delivering consistent insights that teams can trust instead of debating “which number is right.”
8. How does Zenlytic ensure explainability in AI?
Every answer in Zenlytic comes with a “why this number?” breakdown, showing the metrics, filters, and calculations used. This eliminates guesswork and turns AI from a black box into a transparent, auditable, and explainable one.
9. How does Zenlytic handle data governance?
Zenlytic is warehouse-first, meaning governance remains in your data platform (Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift, etc.). Row- and column-level security passthrough ensures permissions are always respected, giving IT and compliance teams confidence.
10. Can non-technical users understand Zenlytic’s AI answers?
Yes. Zenlytic is designed for non-technical end-users. Anyone can ask questions in plain language and get explainable answers. At the same time, analysts benefit from complete lineage, SQL-level transparency, and governance controls.
