What it does

Answers ad hoc margin questions on demand. An operator names a cohort or segment in chat; the workflow pulls that cohort's live margin, cost composition, and recent trend from BigQuery and replies with a clear read on its profitability and direction.

When to use it

Use it during a meeting or a Slack thread when someone asks "how is the Q1 enterprise cohort doing on margin" and you want a grounded answer from the warehouse in seconds instead of opening a BI tool.

How it works

  1. 1A chat message naming a cohort or segment triggers the run.
  2. 2An agent parses the request into a cohort filter and time window.
  3. 3BigQuery returns that cohort's trailing margin, cost breakdown, and trend.
  4. 4The agent composes a concise answer: current margin, the dominant cost driver, and whether the trend is eroding or stable.
  5. 5The reply is returned in the chat thread for follow-up questions.
