Clients Can Now Leverage the Integration of Narrative Science and Tableau to Translate Enterprise Data into Plain English, Statistics into Stories and Numbers into Knowledge

Narrative Science, the leader in natural language generation (NLG) for the enterprise, announces Narratives for Tableau, a new extension built with the recently released Tableau Extension API and powered by Narrative Science.

Narratives for Tableau instantly provides plain-English explanations of charts and graphs, giving analysts a quick and easy way to communicate to dashboard readers. This functionality allows users to generate interactive natural language stories that explain the insights within their data visualizations.

Francois Ajenstat, Tableau’s Chief Product Officer, said, “This is the next logical milestone for our relationship with Narrative Science and ultimately, bringing value to our customers. In simplifying the ability for Tableau users to glean insights from their data, they are freed up to spend more time on analysis and less on administrative tasks.”
