Redefining How Teams Talk to Their Data

Clara was conceived to tackle a challenge many organisations face: how to quickly access and interpret business-critical data without writing SQL queries or trawling through dashboards.

We developed a GPT-powered conversational experience that’s simple, accurate, and user-friendly. The platform empowers teams to:

  • Ask natural language questions like “What were our top-selling products last quarter?”
  • Receive real-time answers directly from live databases.
  • Explore deeper insights interactively through follow-up queries.

By turning data retrieval into a conversation, Clara helps businesses become more agile, informed, and efficient.

What we delivered

To bring Clara to life, we built a secure, high-performance AI platform that combines elegant UX design with robust backend integration:

  • Conversational AI Engine – Integrated GPT-powered natural language processing to interpret user requests and map them to live database queries.
  • Multi-Source Data Connectivity – Connected Clara to inventory systems, product catalogues, sales data, and analytics platforms, enabling a single access point for critical business intelligence.
  • Intuitive User Interface – Designed a minimal, distraction-free interface focused on fast conversational flows and easy-to-read responses.
  • Role-Based Access Control – Implemented secure authentication and permission handling to ensure sensitive data is only accessible to authorised users.
  • Analytics Dashboard – Created a visual reporting layer for when conversations evolve into deeper data exploration, giving users context-rich charts and summaries.
  • Scalable Cloud Architecture – Built the platform on a cloud-native, containerised infrastructure optimised for rapid scaling as usage grows.
