Start analyzing without running a separate warehouse.
ThoughtSpot’s search and chat run on top of a data warehouse. If you do not have one yet, collecting your business data, organizing it, and running the warehouse is a separate project. Qubit includes a warehouse that we host, so preparing the data and analyzing it happen in the same place.
