Governed analytics starts with reviewed definitions
Make metric decisions explicit before people and AI rely on them.
What makes an analytical answer dependable?
Correct SQL is only part of the answer. Teams also need agreement about what a metric means, who can change it, and which version was used. Vizz combines versioned business definitions, workspace permissions, and independent review.
Example: changing a gross margin definition
Suppose a team changes how accepted returns affect gross profit. An author saves the proposed definition as a draft, validates it, and submits it for review. A different reviewer assesses the change before publication. Authors cannot approve their own submissions, including administrators.
Keep published meaning available
The existing published definition stays available while an update is reviewed. Version and review history provide a record of the decisions behind a definition. Teams can inspect the calculation and its dependencies instead of relying on an unexplained number.
Governance supports judgment
Review does not guarantee that a business definition is correct. It creates an explicit decision process and makes assumptions easier to examine. Start with a small set of important metrics, clear ownership, and a reviewer who understands the business context.
