Why Analytics Still Doesn’t Drive Decisions and How That’s Changing
Decision intelligence is a trust problem before it is an AI problem. The teams that get there first will treat BI Ops as a core discipline, not cleanup work.
Datalogz CEO Logan Havern and Director of Product Anouk Gorris made a case that most enterprises are not ready for decision intelligence, and that adding more AI to an ungoverned BI environment does not solve the problem. It makes it worse.
The numbers set the tone. Datalogz' customer data shows an average 77% year-over-year increase in reports and dashboards from 2025 to 2026. That growth is not maturity. It is friction. When people cannot find existing assets, cannot confirm ownership, and cannot trust the data, creating something new is faster than reusing what exists. Sprawl becomes self-fueling.
Agents make this more urgent. AI has collapsed dashboard creation from weeks to hours. In a clean environment, that is leverage. In a messy one, it is acceleration of junk. This is where BI Ops comes in. As Anouk put it during the session: you cannot automate trust. You have to engineer it.
Decision intelligence is a trust problem before it is an AI problem. The teams that get there first will treat BI Ops as a core discipline, not cleanup work.
