We have our own AI, but it is nowhere close to Nakisa, because it has and knows our HR-specific data. This is much more reliable compared to even our own AI system that we are developing. Other players in the market don’t have anything like this!

FAQs

What is the Nakisa Decision Intelligence (NDI) Platform?

NDI is an agentic, enterprise-grade decision intelligence platform that combines AI reasoning with deterministic analytics to deliver real-time, explainable insights. It unifies and interprets vast internal and external datasets across any system in real time. NDI goes beyond analysis by running forecasts, simulations, and visualizations, while providing expert, context-aware guidance every step of the way. Ask complex business questions in natural language (text or voice) and receive tailored recommendations. And it doesn’t stop there: execute decisions instantly through Nakisa AI agents and apply them directly to your ERP and HCM systems.

How is NDI different from traditional BI tools?

Traditional BI answers what happened; NDI explains why it happened and what to do next.

It interprets context, runs forecasts and simulations, provides expert, context-aware guidance and recommendations, and turns insights into actions instantly.

What does agentic architecture mean?

NDI is powered by multiple specialized AI agents—retrieval, predictive, visualization, and orchestration—that work together under a central controller to generate fast, accurate, and contextual results. Learn more about the powerful AI agents behind NDI’s capabilities here.

How does NDI minimize the risk of hallucinations in AI?

It uses a hybrid reasoning model: large-language-model intuition for understanding context, and deterministic computation for mathematical precision and traceability.

Can users trace how NDI arrived at a result?

Yes. Every NDI output includes an explainable reasoning path showing the data, calculations, and agents used, ensuring auditability and compliance.

What types of data can NDI analyze?

NDI is data agnostic; it handles both structured (e.g., financials, HR records, lease data) and unstructured information (documents, reports, text). It understands hierarchies, relationships, and multi-dimensional datasets.

What types of visualizations does NDI produce?

NDI automatically selects the most appropriate visualization—pie, treemap, bubble, chord, 3D scatter, boxplot, diagram, and more—helping users instantly grasp patterns and dependencies. Users can also customize chart types, axes, components, and colors directly through their prompts. Learn more here.

How does NDI perform on large datasets?

Its distributed, agent-based architecture executes queries in parallel, processing millions of records in seconds while maintaining accuracy and data integrity. We currently have tables with over a million records in sample datasets.

How does NDI support scenario and predictive analysis?

NDI’s predictive agents run real-time what-if simulations and forecasts, letting users test assumptions and see potential business outcomes instantly. When certain data isn’t available in your datasets—such as departmental targets, company growth targets, region-specific costs, market rates—NDI prompts users to enter these values, so scenarios can reflect the full picture and generate accurate results. Learn more about NDI’s advanced forecasting and simulation capabilities here.

What makes NDI trustworthy for enterprise decisions?

NDI is governed, explainable, and secure. Every result is reproducible, traceable, and based on governed data, enabling reliable, defensible decision-making.

How does NDI ensure data security and governance?

NDI runs on Nakisa’s secure, enterprise-grade SaaS infrastructure, featuring role-based access control (RBAC), encryption at rest and in transit, single sign-on (SSO), multi-level approvals, and comprehensive audit trails. The platform is compliant with SOC 1 & 2 Type II, FIPS 140-2, ISO 27001 and ISO 27017, is GDPR ready, and meets ITGC standards. Importantly, client data is never used to train or fine-tune third-party AI models.

Does NDI replace existing analytics tools?

No. NDI complements them. It acts as a decision layer above existing BI and ERP systems, unifying data and accelerating cross-functional decision cycles.

How quickly can NDI be deployed?

For existing Nakisa clients, activation can take days; for new environments, governed connectors enable deployment within weeks depending on data readiness.

What level of technical expertise do users need?

No technical expertise is required. Users simply type or speak their questions in natural language. NDI interprets intent, performs analysis, runs forecasts and simulations, and automatically delivers results, tailored recommendations, and intuitive visualizations.


How does NDI maintain consistency across departments?

By applying shared business logic and governed data models, NDI ensures all teams, such as Finance, HR, and Operations, work from one consistent source of truth.


Can NDI connect to non-Nakisa systems?

Yes. While natively integrated with Nakisa Lease Accounting, IWMS, and Workforce Planning portfolios, NDI can also connect to ERP and HCM systems such as SAP, Oracle, Workday, and PeopleSoft, as well as CRM and data platforms like Salesforce and Snowflake.

How does NDI integrate results into daily workflows?

Users can export insights, generate reports, or trigger workflow actions directly within NDI, turning analytics and recommendations into operational actions without switching platforms.

How does NDI facilitate collaboration between teams?

NDI's conversational interface and shared decision history enable organization-wide teams, such as Finance, HR, and Operations, to explore the same scenarios, align assumptions, and act in alignment.

What value or ROI can organizations gain from using NDI

Organizations using Nakisa Decision Intelligence (NDI) can expect measurable value and ROI across multiple dimensions:

  1. Faster, smarter decisions: By turning complex, siloed data into real-time, actionable insights, NDI accelerates decision-making and reduces reliance on manual analysis.
  2. Improved accuracy and confidence: Hybrid AI architecture ensures decisions are both creative and precise, minimizing errors and risks associated with data misinterpretation.
  3. Operational efficiency: Automated workflows and AI-driven actions reduce manual work, freeing teams to focus on high-value, strategic initiatives.
  4. Cross-functional alignment: Shared decision history and a conversational interface enable organization-wide teams to align assumptions and act cohesively.
  5. Cost savings and risk mitigation: NDI identifies opportunities and risks early, optimizes resources, and improves compliance, reducing financial exposure.
  6. Scalable insights: Supports enterprise-wide adoption, allowing organizations to analyze multiple business domains (HR, real estate, finance) in one unified platform.

In short, NDI transforms data into confident, coordinated action, enabling organizations to maximize strategic impact while lowering costs and operational risk.
