// about Looker
Looker is Google Cloud's BI platform, built around a modeling layer (LookML) that defines metrics once so every dashboard and report in a company pulls from the same definitions. Analysts and data teams use it to build governed dashboards, embed analytics into other products, and let non-technical staff explore data without writing SQL. Its newer AI layer, Gemini in Looker, lets anyone ask questions in plain language and get a chart back.
