data:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Business users ask questions in natural language instead of navigating a forest of dashboards.<\/li>\n<li>You can add company-specific instructions, examples and guardrails, so the agent reflects your policies and definitions.<\/li>\n<li>Existing security rules are respected automatically, users only see what they\u2019re allowed to see.<\/li>\n<li>All agents are accessible
