Prophecy Launches DataGPT, Bringing Enterprise Data Workflows to Claude, ChatGPT, and Copilot

PALO ALTO, Calif., Oct. 28, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Prophecy, the AI platform for business data work, today announced Prophecy DataGPT. DataGPT lets business data analysts do complete data work, from onboarding messy files to publishing finished reports, inside ChatGPT, Claude and Microsoft Copilot. Every result comes with a visual data workflow that can be inspected and validated, and approved work ships as repeatable code on the data platform the organization already owns.

Highlights

• Accelerate data work: Now, without leaving ChatGPT, Claude or Microsoft Copilot, analysts describe the outcome they need, and DataGPT builds the whole workflow right in the conversation: onboard, prepare, analyze and output.
• Visually verify: Every answer brings in the visual workflow behind it, so business data teams can inspect and approve each step.
• Compound knowledge: Prophecy uses a knowledge graph to connect business context with data workflows, helping teams apply relevant definitions and business rules across their data work.
• Operationalize outcomes: Approved workflows ship as data products, and run as governed, repeatable code on Snowflake, Databricks or BigQuery, on a schedule.

When business data analysts upload spreadsheets into AI apps like ChatGPT or Claude to reconcile a quarter of transactions, the AI writes and runs a script behind the scenes to produce the result. Because they cannot read that code, they cannot validate it, refine it, or stand behind it.

Once the chat session ends, the workflow vanishes with it. The path that carried messy inputs to a finished output disappears, and so does the domain knowledge the user supplied along the way, such as their business rules, revenue definitions, and approved exceptions.

That gap is growing as AI-generated data spreads. Gartner predicts that by 2028, “50% of organizations will adopt a zero-trust data governance as unverified AI-generated data grows.”

“Enterprise AI is moving from answering questions to doing repeatable work. Generating an answer has gotten simpler. The challenge now is making the underlying data verifiable, governed, and reusable. Companies that can close the gap between business intent and execution will improve decision velocity,” validates Michael Ni, VP & Principal Analyst at Constellation Research.

"Coders got AI that changed the way they work, collaborating with them on code all the way from development to production, unlocking tremendous productivity. Business data analysts got question answering, and nothing else changed," said Raj Bains, founder and CEO of Prophecy. "We are closing that gap. Business analysts now get what coders got - the visual workflow behind every result, in a form they can verify and change, built on governed knowledge. The work worth keeping moves to production on their data platform."

AI that does the data work, not just answers questions

AI assistants can answer questions about data that's already prepared. Enterprise data teams rarely start there. Their real work is getting the data ready: onboarding files, reconciling systems that disagree, matching records with no common key, and cleaning and transforming everything. Then they have to deliver reports, dashboards and filings in exact formats, where every number must be correct and verified.

DataGPT is designed for finance, operations and line-of-business analysts who work in spreadsheets and desktop tools. In a single conversation, an analyst can upload a messy Excel file, check it against an audit list and data in SharePoint, Snowflake and Databricks, apply a pricing rule for discounted product bundles, review the results and schedule the workflow to rerun every month. DataGPT connects to files, SharePoint, data warehouses, ERP and CRM systems, and every workflow is backed by open code in Git, so the logic stays transparent and auditable.

Data teams review instead of rebuild

With DataGPT, business analysts no longer build every workflow from scratch. AI builds it, and they verify it visually instead, reviewing each step and its results on screen, making small refinements where needed and approving the final version. Approved workflows then rerun exactly the same way every time, with no new AI generation and no added AI cost.

Bringing shadow AI under governance

Many business analysts already paste company spreadsheets into AI chat tools without IT's knowledge or approval, one of the most common forms of shadow AI. With DataGPT, uploaded files go through Prophecy to the organization's own data platform, not into an AI chat. Data platform leaders and IT can see every workflow and govern it on the platform they already own, without adding another silo.

Availability

Prophecy DataGPT is available today. Bring Prophecy into ChatGPT, Claude, and Microsoft Copilot, or use DataGPT in the Prophecy app. Organizations can get started with a free account, with centralized deployment options for administrators.
