Product Analytics

Draft queries and suggest segments to inspect.

The workflow, side by side

Traditional workflow

Before generative AI assistance
  1. 1

    Clarify the goal using a funnel and its event definitions

  2. 2

    Define the metric and cohort

  3. 3

    Inspect instrumentation and segments

  4. 4

    Interpret changes with context

  5. 5

    Check the result against the agreed criteria

  6. 6

    Communicate the outcome and record the decision

AI-assisted workflow

AI contributes. You guide and verify.
  1. 1

    Define the goal, constraints, and permitted information

  2. 2

    Provide relevant, sanitized context from a funnel and its event definitions

  3. 3

    Ask AI to draft queries and suggest segments to inspect

    AI + YOU
  4. 4

    Inspect suggestions against original evidence and domain rules

  5. 5

    Revise the output and independently validate the result

    YOU
  6. 6

    A responsible professional approves and communicates the outcome

HUMAN CHECKPOINT

Does this result reflect user behavior rather than measurement changes?

Your judgment matters

The shift: Evaluating AI-generated themes while preserving customer context. Foundational skills still matter.

Where AI can go wrong3 things to check

A plausible but wrong answer

AI may infer improvement from a renamed or duplicated event. It can fail the underlying goal even when it sounds convincing.

Your check

Audit the event definition and recompute a consistent measure.

Missing or invented context

AI may fill gaps with unsupported assumptions, which can send the work in the wrong direction.

Your check

Trace claims to original evidence and ask the relevant person about unknowns.

Information shared in the wrong place

Sensitive records or code can cross confidentiality boundaries if supplied to an unsuitable tool.

Your check

Use approved tools, share the minimum context needed, and follow your organization’s rules.

Try a quick exerciseA practical scenario

Activation rises after an event begins firing on page load rather than completion.
