NetEase YouShu

网易有数 (NetEase YouData) is an enterprise BI and data-analysis platform with AI-assisted reporting, dashboards and natural-language queries.

Overview

有数 is NetEase’s business intelligence suite for companies that want self-service analytics without a heavy IT footprint. It connects to common databases and cloud warehouses, models data through a semantic layer and renders interactive dashboards for desktop and mobile. AI capabilities let analysts ask questions in natural language, generate chart suggestions and produce narrative summaries of trends. Governance features cover permissions, data lineage and audit logs, and embedded analytics allow dashboards to be published into internal systems.

Key Features

• Self-service dashboards with drag-and-drop chart building
• Natural-language querying and AI-generated insight summaries
• Connectors for mainstream databases and data warehouses
• Semantic modeling with reusable metric definitions
• Granular permissions, lineage and audit logging
• Embedded analytics for portals and business systems

Pricing

网易有数 is sold through enterprise licensing based on user scale and deployment, with pricing provided by consultation. Cloud and private deployment options are both available.

Who Is It For

It serves Chinese enterprises in retail, manufacturing and internet sectors that need governed self-service BI with local deployment and support.

How It Works

Connect your databases or warehouses, model metrics in the semantic layer and build dashboards with drag-and-drop components. Business users ask questions in natural language and receive generated charts with narrative explanations of the trends. Dashboards publish to desktop and mobile, and permission controls determine who sees which data slice across the organization.

In Practice

Successful rollouts start by standardizing metric definitions before building dashboards; otherwise teams argue about numbers instead of decisions. Use the AI summaries for weekly operating reviews to cut preparation time, and embed key dashboards into internal portals so data meets employees where they already work. Plan governance early — permission models are much easier to design before the first hundred dashboards exist.
