Here's a quick feature walkthrough. We picked the "Bike Sharing" Demo dataset and select a simple chart (registered
) as an example:
-
Begin your data exploration journey with any chart.
-
Scroll down on the "Semi-auto Exploration" Tab, you can see the data visualizations that RATH automatically generated. RATH AI can understand your intent and suggest charts that you might want to explore.
