Charlay is Layest’s Business Navigator. It is designed to connect business information, track the KPIs that matter, uncover relationships, and make insights easier to act on.

Connected context

Bring information from Layest Data Collections and connected sources into one view.

Better questions

Explore performance in natural language without needing to write queries.

Useful foresight

Identify patterns, relationships, and signals that support better decisions.
Charlay is currently shown as a preview in the Layest Agent Library and cannot be created from the library today. Use the Agents page in your workspace as the source of truth for availability.

What Charlay is built for

Charlay is intended to help teams:
  • connect fragmented operational and financial information
  • monitor the same KPIs across projects, companies, or portfolios
  • investigate changes and relationships in the data
  • prepare concise management insights
  • support planning and forecasting conversations
  • make dashboards and recurring analysis easier to maintain

Prepare your data now

Even before Charlay becomes available in your workspace, you can prepare the foundation:
1

Organize the source data

Keep important records in clear Layest Data Collections with consistent field labels and relationships.
2

Agree on KPI definitions

Document what each metric means, where it comes from, and how often it should be updated.
3

Build trusted dashboards

Use Layest dashboards for the views your team already reviews regularly.
4

Use Finlay for questions

Ask Finlay to explore workspace data, show relevant records, and help draft private dashboards for review.

Availability and Setup

A customer Setup guide and Setup screenshot will be added when Charlay is enabled as a configurable agent. Until then, do not rely on a preview card as confirmation that the agent can run in your workspace.
