Looker has harnessed the power of SQL to create a uniquely powerful data analytics platform that helps companies get real value from their data. Data analysts get knowledge of the data out of their heads and into LookML, Looker’s simple yet powerful data modeling language. Define business metrics (e.g. lifetime customer value, conversion rate) and explain how tables relate to each other once, and then let Looker write the right SQL to answer any data explorers' questions. Visualizations help you tell a complete story with data. Create easy-to-read reports and beautiful dashboards that also allow users to drill in and keep exploring. Easily share data-rich visualizations anytime--from any device. Give all your users—technical and non-technical—access to Looker to answer their own questions through reports, dashboards or just exploring the curated environment you have built.
