FireflyBI was pioneering a new data processing and business insights platform used by organisation with complex, fragmented data source.
I was brought in to help conceptualise a natural language ‘chat’ interface for non-technical users to ‘talk to data’. We named it Firefly Lumi – a riff on the idea of illuminating data in new ways.

Firefly Lumi was conceived before ChatGPT or other chat-based AI tools existed, so there was no good reference in the market to use at the time.
The primary challenge was to find an intuitive approach to querying insights across a complex data set and get simple, understandable insights back which could then be used to build reports or refine.
