About This Constellation ShortList™
Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) help companies go beyond descriptive and diagnostic analytics to predict future outcomes, opportunities and risks. AI and ML are used to identify best customers, optimize upsell and cross-sell offers, understand financial risks, choose new products and anticipate equipment failures. Generative AI (GenAI) capabilities are being added to these platforms to help organizations experiment with multi-modal models and generate, deploy and monitor AI and GenAI applications and assistants.
This category refers to products that make it possible for analysts and data-savvy business users, as well as data scientists, to develop and deploy AI, ML and GenAI capabilities. The category is important for any organization that wants to take advantage of potentially powerful, forward-looking predictive analyses.
Altair RapidMiner and Tibco Data Science were dropped from this Shortlist due to a lack of progress and investment in new technologies including GenAI.
