Poppulo Analyze Agent is a conversational AI assistant that helps you explore and understand communication performance quickly and intuitively. Instead of digging through dashboards or building detailed reports, you can request specific insights using natural language, from open and click-through rates to trends over time, audience and department comparisons, and content-level signals. Analyze Agent then retrieves, interprets, and presents the results in a clear, structured way so you can move from data to action faster.


Getting Started

Analyze Agent is designed to help users quickly uncover insights from their communication data. You can ask questions in natural language, refine follow-up prompts, and generate visualizations to better understand communication performance and engagement trends.

To get started, try prompts such as:
  • “Which communications had the highest click-through rate in the last 30 days?”
  • “What themes are driving the most engagement?”
  • “Compare engagement trends between departments this quarter.”
For the best results, keep prompts focused and include details such as timeframe, audience, communication type, or metric.


Access the Analyze Agent 

The Analyze Agent is available at both Enterprise and Sub-Account level. The Analyze Agent can only access the data that your permissions allow. For example, if you only have access to certain sub-accounts, the Agent will only analyze data related to those sub-accounts.

  1. From the Home page of your account, click Reports.

Note: It is mandatory that "Advanced Reports" is enabled in your account to access the Analyze Agent. You must also accept Poppulo AI Supplement Terms to use Poppulo AI features.

Upon first use, the Agent will automatically run a query "What are the latest insights and updates?". This query reviews communication activity from the past 30 days and responds with a summary of communications performance and other insights such as busiest send times. 


Start a New Query 

You can run multiple queries in the Analyze Agent based on your requirement. To start a new query in Analyze Agent

  1.  On the Analyze Agent screen, click the Prompt area to enter your query.
  1. Type your query into the Prompt area. For example, entering 'Which is the most viewed email in the month of January', prompts the agent to run the query and display the results. The following images illustrate both the query and its corresponding output.

Additionally, you can queue up to three queries in the prompt area, and the agent will execute them sequentially, providing the results for each.

If you want to run a report for a specific query in the queue, click the arrow icon next to that query. The agent skips the remaining queued queries and runs the report for the selected one.

Before submitting the query, ensure that any earlier prompt results have completed. Otherwise, the agent cancels the in-progress results and runs the report for the currently selected query.
The agent can run a report for only one query at a time.


Writing Effective Prompts

Analyze Agent works best when prompts are clear and specific. Start by describing the outcome you want to understand, then narrow the scope by including details such as timeframe, audience, communication type, or metric.

For example:

  • “Compare newsletter engagement across departments in the last quarter.”
  • “Show messages mentioning benefits enrollment from the last 90 days.”
  • “Which leadership updates generated the highest engagement?”
  • See more example prompts >

You can also ask Analyze Agent to summarize trends or recommend improvements. Prompts such as “highlight key insights” or “recommend ways to improve engagement” can help generate more actionable responses.

To improve accuracy, ask one question at a time and avoid vague requests such as “show me the best recent communications.”

Analyze Agent responses are based on the communication data and permissions available to each user. Results may vary depending on available reporting data, communication naming conventions, and the scope of the prompt provided.

 

Visualization

The Agent often responds with charts and other visualizations. You can also prompt the agent to provide you with visualizations that help you better interpret results or to share with others.

If you would wish to download the visualizations, you can click Download on the top right corner of the visualization.
