The story

A North American infrastructure provider supplying 33% of United States natural gas through 30,000 miles of pipelines while managing millions of transaction records.

Centralized analysts were overwhelmed by data requests, often spending up to a week coding and validating complex reports for executives. This bottleneck prevented business users from accessing real-time insights for contract management and asset optimization.

The team built subject matter expert agents called Genie Spaces for domains like contracts and billing, flattening 27 tables into large SQL models for efficient processing. Business acronyms and logic were codified directly into the system instructions to ensure accurate, context-aware responses. Non-technical staff can now query data using natural language while the system surfaces the underlying SQL for transparency.
