Turn Your Data Into Clear Business Insights
Waterford AI builds data analytics solutions for Irish businesses — dashboards, automated reports, and business intelligence that show you exactly what is driving your performance.
We use Python, Power BI, and Google Looker Studio to turn your raw data into clear, visual dashboards and automated reports. Stop guessing and start making decisions based on real data. Serving businesses across all of Ireland.
What is data analytics for business?
Every business generates data — sales records, customer information, operational figures, website traffic, and more. Most of this data sits unused in spreadsheets, accounting software, and CRM systems.
Data analytics means connecting all of this data and turning it into clear, visual insights that help you run your business better. Instead of spending hours manually pulling figures together, your dashboards update automatically and show you exactly what you need to see.
At Waterford AI, we make data analytics accessible for Irish SMEs — not just large corporations. Whether you need a single dashboard, automated weekly reports, or a full business intelligence system, we build a solution that fits your budget and delivers real value.

Data analytics — frequently asked questions
What is data analytics for business?
Data analytics means taking the raw data your business already generates — sales figures, customer records, operational data — and turning it into clear, understandable insights. This helps you make better decisions, spot trends early, and understand what is actually driving your business performance.
How much does data analytics cost in Ireland?
At Waterford AI, data analytics projects start from €800 for a single dashboard or report. More comprehensive data solutions — including automated reporting, multiple dashboards, and ongoing maintenance — are quoted based on your specific requirements after a free consultation. No hourly billing, no hidden fees.
What data sources can you connect to?
We connect to virtually any data source — including spreadsheets, SQL databases, Google Analytics, HubSpot, Salesforce, Xero, Shopify, and custom APIs. If your data exists somewhere, we can pull it into a clear dashboard or report.
What tools do you use for data analytics?
Waterford AI uses Python (Pandas, Plotly, Matplotlib), Power BI, Google Looker Studio, and custom Next.js dashboards depending on what fits your business best. We recommend the right tool for your needs — not the most complex one.
Can you automate our reporting?
Yes. We can fully automate your reports so they are generated and emailed to your team automatically — daily, weekly, or monthly. No more manually pulling data into spreadsheets every week.
How long does a data analytics project take?
A single dashboard or report is typically delivered in 1–2 weeks. Multi-source business intelligence systems with automated reporting take 3–6 weeks depending on how many data sources are involved and how much cleaning the data needs.
Do I need clean, organised data to start?
No. Most businesses we work with have messy, scattered data across spreadsheets and systems that don't talk to each other. Cleaning and structuring your data is part of the process — we handle it so you don't have to.
Do you work with businesses outside Waterford?
Yes. Waterford AI serves businesses across all 26 Irish counties — Dublin, Cork, Galway, Limerick, Kilkenny, and everywhere else. Most projects are delivered remotely, with in-person meetings available when needed.
