What it does
Sisense is an analytics platform built mainly to let companies embed dashboards and charts inside their own software product, under their own brand, rather than sending customers to a separate BI tool. Sisense Intelligence is its AI layer: a chat assistant that answers plain-language questions, generates written summaries of results, and highlights probable drivers behind a change in a metric, plus forecasting and alerting through a feature called Pulse. Developers embed it through the Compose SDK, which gives more control over layout and behavior than a simple iframe, and the platform supports multi-tenant setups so each customer sees only its own data. Sisense also exposes an MCP server and APIs that connect its data to outside AI tools.
Where it can help
This fits a software company or platform team that needs to embed analytics into a customer-facing product, more than a team that only wants an internal dashboard. A practical starting point is its Launch tier, which one third-party estimate puts near $399 a month for a limited amount of data, a small number of designer seats, and a set amount of AI credits; enterprise pricing beyond that is quote-based. Because AI features are metered by credits, a busy embedded deployment can add meaningfully to the base subscription, so estimate usage volume before committing. Sisense does not publish full enterprise pricing, which makes up-front comparison harder, so ask for a detailed quote broken out by base platform and AI credit usage.
