Key Capabilities
Smart Auto-Completion
As users begin typing a question, the Timbr add-in offers guided suggestions based on available concepts, filters, and metrics, helping them ask the right question without needing technical knowledge.
Natural Language to SQL in Real Time
Questions entered in plain English are instantly translated into optimized SQL queries and executed securely via Timbr’s semantic layer, with results returned directly into Excel.
Ontology-Driven Query Suggestions
Because Timbr models your data semantically, all suggestions and completions are drawn from a governed knowledge graph, ensuring accuracy, compliance, and business logic alignment.
Governed Access to Enterprise Data
Only authorized users can access approved data and metrics. Row-level security and data masking rules are enforced automatically in the background.
Seamless Excel Experience
No new tools to learn. The add-in fits naturally into Excel’s interface, enabling intuitive data exploration in the tool business users already rely on.
