FAQs

How do I activate AI Analyst in Rows?

The AI Analyst is available to all users. You can access it in the ✨ icon next to the filer and settings options of any table.

What does it cost to use AI Analyst?

Our AI Analyst is still in beta and available on the Free plan with unlimited usage. This may change in the future and which would reflect on pricing page as well.

Which models does the AI Analyst use?

The AI Analyst is powered by OpenAI’s GPT-4o model. We’ll continue to upgrade this as and when there are newer models available.

Can I use a different model with the AI Analyst?

No. Currently, our AI Analyst is powered by OpenAI’s GPT-4o model and we don’t expose a way to switch models to power our AI Analyst.

You may either reach out to us via [enterprise@rows.com](mailto: enterprise@rows.com) , or by using the Chat with us option in the support menu in your Rows account and we'd be happy to consider this as part of our Enterprise offering

Does the model use my data for training purposes?

No. Privacy is important to us. The AI Analyst✨ does not use your data to train models that could be employed by other users. We also minimize the data we send to the AI algorithm, and you can find more about how we process your data here.

Does OpenAI use the data they receive for training their models?

No. OpenAI will not use data submitted by customers via their API to train or improve their models, as they require an explicit opt-in for this purpose. More on this can be found under OpenAI's consumer privacy FAQs.

What data do I share with the model?

When you use the AI Analyst in a table, to protect your privacy we send to OpenAI just an summarization of the dataset, including the header of the dataset, a limited sample containing at most 5 rows of data, and basic stats of the dataset, like min and max. Therefore we only send personal data to OpenAI if you include personal data, such as names, in the first row or column of the table that contains data, and in the example rows. We do not send full tables to OpenAI to protect your privacy. You can find more about how we process your data here.

How many rows and columns of data can the AI Analyst process?

TL;DR: There are no limits 😊

Since we only send a summary of the dataset, including the header of the dataset, a limited sample containing at most 5 rows of data, and basic stats of the dataset, like min and max to OpenAI’s APIs, you can trigger our AI Analyst on the entire dataset you have on Rows and we will be able to seamlessly process it.

Should it take more than 30 seconds for the AI Analyst to surface the results, you may wait a few seconds and try again.

Where can I request new features?

You can share your feedback and feature request asks on our public board or via our in-app chat that you can access by navigating to the question mark (?) on the right-top-corner > Help > Chat with us.

Preparing your table for the AI Analyst

Before using the AI Analyst, make sure that:

  • The table contains headers in the first row of the table.
  • Each header has a unique name.
  • In addition to the header, the table has at least one full row of data.

Additionally, the AI Analyst infers the orientation of the table based on its headers. If the headers on the first row are dates/times (as in a Profit & Loss report), the AI Analyst will assume that the table is vertically oriented and treat the values on the first column of the table as its de facto 'headers'.

⚠️ If the table fulfills all of these requirements and you're still not getting any insights, try re-importing it (or copy-pasting the data) to a new table and trying again.
