What is Ask Athena ?

Ask Athena is a Generative AI-driven conversational interface equipped with Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) architecture. It leverages GenAI to support users in drawing meaningful Insights from their data in an easy-to-use and efficient manner at the click of a button. By taking advantage of RAG, Ask Athena enhances the quality and relevance of its outputs by retrieving relevant data from the specified “Focus Areas” and augmenting it with user queries before generating informed responses.

Why Ask Athena is unique

What makes the Ask Athena different from similar offerings lies in its ability to be specific about the sources that are used to generate a response. Since Ask Athena can utilize your “Curated Newsfeed” and the “Facts and Insights” that are generated by you to curate a response by leveraging LLMs, it offers a response that is specifically tailored for you without any additional content.
