# Copilot Assistant

Copilot Assistant is the GenAI Analytics Copilot of the Space & Assets Analytics Suite. It allows business users to ask questions in plain language and receive verified answers based on structured BuildingPro data.

This approach is often described as NL2SQL, meaning natural language is translated into controlled data queries behind the scenes. Users do not need SQL skills to explore portfolio and building data.

This module enables the Copilot Assistant page and the full set of AI copilot assistant functionalities that come with it.

## What It Enables

With Copilot Assistant, users can:

* ask business questions in natural language
* receive answers in the form of tables, charts, and reports
* analyze buildings and portfolios without writing SQL
* use structured BuildingPro data as the trusted basis for answers
* keep data access controlled and traceable

## Example Use

Typical questions could include:

* Which buildings have the biggest utilization gap versus energy intensity?
* Which sites show the highest opportunity for improvement?
* Where do space, asset, and energy KPIs point to the biggest business impact?

## Typical Value

Copilot Assistant accelerates self-service analytics while keeping governance in place. It makes advanced portfolio analysis accessible to business users, not only technical analysts.
