# Introduction to Atoti Intelligence
> Atoti Intelligence lets risk managers, traders, and analysts query live financial data in natural language, with accurate and auditable results that general-purpose AI tools cannot deliver.
# What is Atoti Intelligence?
Atoti Intelligence is the agentic layer of the Atoti platform.
It sits on top of the Atoti Engine and brings AI capabilities to the platform.
This page is intended for users familiar with Atoti applications and analytics concepts.
Atoti Intelligence is designed for financial institutions that want to use AI agents to query live data and accelerate
investigation and analysis.
## Why use Atoti Intelligence?
Risk managers, traders, and analysts spend significant time on complex and repetitive tasks: querying data,
investigating exceptions, and building dashboards.
General-purpose AI tools cannot perform these tasks reliably on financial data.
They lack access to real-time data and do not understand the relationships between complex non-linear metrics.
They cannot provide deterministic, auditable outcomes, which are a requirement for risk and regulatory functions.
Atoti Intelligence addresses these limitations by grounding AI in the Atoti Engine's semantic layer.
Natural language queries are mapped to precise business concepts, with hierarchical understanding of organizational
structures and deterministic roll-up and drill-down logic.
This eliminates hallucination risk and ensures that AI-powered insights are accurate and auditable.
Key benefits include:
* **Deterministic outcomes**
AI queries are grounded in Atoti's semantic layer, producing precise and auditable results rather than probabilistic
responses.
* **Real-time data**
Agents operate on live, granular data across trading, position, risk, and other systems. Data is never stale.
* **IP control and data safety**
Atoti Intelligence operates entirely within the firm's environment. Proprietary data, models, and algorithms remain
under the firm's control.
* **Bring Your Own LLM**
Firms can connect their own approved LLM. The platform is not locked to any single provider.
* **Open and extensible**
Atoti Intelligence connects to existing agents, LLMs, and enterprise AI infrastructure through the Atoti MCP Server.
## Who is Atoti Intelligence for?
Atoti Intelligence is used by teams that work with Atoti applications and want to interact with data using natural
language.
Typical users include:
* Risk managers and analysts.
* Front office traders and desk heads.
* Operations and control teams.
Common use cases include:
* Querying live risk and P\&L data using natural language.
* Performing automated root-cause analysis on complex metrics.
* Creating dashboards from natural-language prompts.
* Integrating Atoti capabilities into a broader firm AI infrastructure.
## How does Atoti Intelligence work?
Atoti Intelligence is built on the Atoti Engine's semantic layer.
The semantic layer provides the trusted business context that AI agents need to reason correctly on financial data.
It maps natural language queries to precise business concepts, with hierarchical understanding of organizational
structures and deterministic analytics.
Users can access Atoti Intelligence directly from Atoti UI.
This allows them to interact with their data using natural language instead of manually building queries and dashboards.
Atoti Intelligence includes four components:
* **Auto-Explain**: automated root-cause analysis on complex metrics.
* **Visualize This**: dashboard creation from natural-language prompts.
* **Atoti UI Chat**: a natural-language interface for querying live data.
* **Atoti Intelligence Agent and MCP Server**: the agent that connects to the firm's chosen LLM, and the MCP Server that
exposes Atoti's semantic layer, data, and tools so they are discoverable by AI agents.
## What is the relationship to other Atoti products?
Atoti Intelligence is part of the Atoti platform.
It is not a standalone product.
It sits on top of the Atoti Engine and requires an existing Atoti application.
