I'm thrilled to announce that the talented team from Narrative BI is joining Cube to accelerate our mission of building the future of agentic analytics. Michael Rumiantsau, founder of Narrative BI, will be joining as VP of Product to help lead this next phase of innovation.

For years, the Narrative BI team has been at the forefront of making analytics proactive, conversational, and intelligent: creating experiences where insights come to users without dashboards, prompts, or manual digging. They've built an impressive platform serving hundreds of customers and thousands of users who've experienced firsthand what truly intelligent analytics can look like.

Why this partnership makes perfect sense

At Cube, we've been pioneering the semantic layer as the foundation for modern data stacks. We've always believed that the semantic layer is essential for AI-powered analytics: it provides the context, governance, and consistency that AI agents need to deliver reliable insights.

The Narrative BI team brings deep expertise in agentic workflows and AI-driven data analysis that perfectly complements our semantic layer technology. Together, we're uniquely positioned to build the leading agentic analytics platform that combines Cube's powerful data modeling capabilities with proven AI agent architecture.

Building on proven foundations

This partnership strengthens our commitment to our agentic business intelligence platform announced earlier this year. With the Narrative BI team's expertise, we can accelerate development of:

  • Natural language analytics that understand business context through our semantic layer
  • Agentic workflows that proactively surface insights and recommendations
  • Multi-agent architectures that can collaborate across different data domains
  • Embedded analytics powered by AI for customer-facing applications

What's next

The future of analytics isn't just about making existing BI tools smarter—it's about fundamentally reimagining how humans and AI collaborate with data. We're building toward a world where:

  • Business users can have natural conversations with their data
  • AI agents can autonomously identify trends, anomalies, and opportunities
  • Data teams can scale their impact without scaling headcount
  • Every application can have intelligent analytics embedded natively

The Narrative BI team started with a vision to reimagine analytics in the age of AI. Now, together with Cube's semantic layer foundation and growing ecosystem, we're positioned to make that vision a reality at scale.

To the Narrative BI community: welcome to the Cube family. Your journey toward truly intelligent analytics is just beginning.
