GoodData has introduced its Intelligence Layer, a suite of governed, context-aware AI analytics tools designed to help enterprises move from fragmented data to decision-ready intelligence. Announced in San Francisco on 3 December, the platform grounds AI in organisational data governance, ensuring every output is precise, explainable, and aligned with business rules.
Roman Stanek, founder and chief executive of GoodData, said: “Most companies don’t need more dashboards, they need clarity. They need to know their data is right, easy to understand, and ready to use. That’s exactly what the Intelligence Layer is built for.”
At the centre of the release is the Analytics Catalog, a unified workspace where teams can manage analytical definitions and metrics under a single governed structure. Supported by AI copilots, the catalog allows users to generate and validate dashboards, visualisations, and datasets with accuracy — reducing duplication and creating a shared analytical language across teams.
GoodData’s Semantic Quality Agent complements the catalog by automatically scanning for inconsistencies and ambiguous definitions that can compromise AI-generated results. By maintaining the quality of metadata in real time, the Agent acts as an integrity layer for organisations working across multiple systems or regions.
A further component, AI Memory, extends the platform’s contextual depth by teaching AI assistants to understand company-specific terminology, acronyms, and tone. This allows businesses to deploy AI that communicates in their own operational language, strengthening accountability and improving trust in automated insights.
Stanek added: “AI shouldn’t feel like a black box. It should feel like a part of your team, one that understands your terminology, your priorities, and your guardrails. With the Intelligence Layer, people can finally trust the answers they’re getting — they can make decisions faster and with a lot more confidence.”
The launch comes as organisations increasingly seek to balance AI innovation with data governance, particularly in regulated industries. By embedding governance and semantics at the core of analytics, GoodData’s Intelligence Layer sits as a bridge between traditional business intelligence and the new wave of AI-enabled decision systems.
