What is Embedded Analytics?

Embedded analytics puts charts, dashboards or data exploration inside another application, so users see insights where they already work.

Embedded Analytics explained

Instead of sending users to a separate BI tool, a software product shows them their own data inside its interface, for example a usage report in a customer portal.

Building it raises questions of access control and data isolation: each user must see only their own organisation's data.

Example

An invoicing app that shows each customer a built-in report of their own spending is using embedded analytics.
