Amazon QuickSight is the AWS business intelligence (BI) service designed for creating interactive dashboards and data visualizations. The integration of Amazon Q within QuickSight specifically enables users to ask questions in natural language (e.g., "Show total sales for top products in the last 12 months") and have the service automatically generate the relevant graphs and visuals. This capability directly addresses the company's requirement to automate the generation of graphs from their sales data without needing to manually build reports.
