Welbee, a multi-award-winning organisation providing surveys to help schools and trusts gather stakeholder feedback and centralise their data, has joined forces with Rittman Analytics, an expert consultancy in AI-powered analytics. Their collaboration has led to a pioneering proof of concept (PoC) for Welbee’s Edu Intelligence™ platform.
As a result of this partnership, an advanced AI-powered assistant has been developed to enhance the way schools and trusts leverage stakeholder insights and data to drive impactful change.
The collaboration has focused on integrating sophisticated analytics and AI solutions to refine how educational institutions manage data. With tools such as Google BigQuery and Vertex AI, Rittman Analytics has equipped Welbee with cutting-edge capabilities that simplify data analysis and provide faster, actionable insights for decision-making.
Key Features of the AI-Driven Solution:
- Automated Pre-Analysis: Streamlines survey data processing, delivering key insights as soon as surveys close—removing the need for manual review.
- Conversational Text-to-SQL Chatbot: Allows users to query data in everyday language, automatically translating requests into SQL queries for real-time, accessible insights.
- Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) Integration: Merges survey responses with contextual information from Welbee’s Wellbeing Toolkit to offer well-rounded, actionable recommendations.
Benefits for Schools and Trusts:
- Quicker, data-driven decision-making with instant access to insights.
- A comprehensive view of stakeholder feedback, combined with wider institutional data.
- A user-friendly platform that simplifies data exploration for all users.
