🏠Tellius Home Page
Explore the redesigned Tellius Homepage with global search, pinned KPIs, and quick access to Vizpads, Insights, and Business Views for faster decisions.
The Tellius home page has been redesigned to act as your starting point for every session. Instead of a static landing screen, the new home surfaces what matters right now: outputs from your scheduled Missions, the content you most recently worked on, and personalized suggestions based on what others in the same Business View environment are using. The page also adapts to where you are in your journey, so a brand-new user, a user who just connected their first data source, and a long-time power user each see a home page suited to their stage.
This guide walks through every section, menu, button, and state of the new home page, the Kaiya-powered onboarding flow for new users, and the Kaiya Architect and Connect screens that the onboarding flow opens.
What's on the new home page
When you log in with data sources and at least one Business View already in place, you land on the full home page. The screen is organized top to bottom into a personalized greeting, the Ask Kaiya input, sample prompts, a briefings section, and the content tabs (Recently Viewed and Suggested for You).
Global search bar
In the top-right corner of the page is the Search anything… bar. Use it to find any artifact in your workspace without opening each module separately: conversations, Vizpads, Business Views, Missions, Apps, and more. You can also open this search from anywhere using the keyboard shortcut shown beside the bar (⌘ K on macOS, Ctrl + K on Windows).
Ask Kaiya input
The large input box in the center of the page is where you talk to Kaiya. The placeholder text reads "Ask Kaiya anything…" Type a business question in natural language and Kaiya answers it against your data.
The input box has the following controls:
Auto detect BV: Kaiya auto-selects which Business View should be used to answer your question. By default it is set to Auto detect BV, which lets Kaiya choose the most relevant Business View for your question automatically. Click the dropdown to pick a specific Business View instead.
Voice / live input control: The signal icon next to the send button lets you provide voice or live input rather than typing.
Send: The button activates once your prompt is ready to send.
When no data source is connected, the input is disabled and the controls are inactive. See The Day 0 (new user) home page for what this state looks like.
Mode pills
Directly beneath the Ask Kaiya input are four mode pills. Each pill routes your request to a specific Kaiya capability:
Deep Insight: Kaiya launches an in-depth, multi-step, multi-agent analysis of your data.
Mission: Sets up a recurring job that analyses your data and delivers a briefing when something changes.
App: Opens the Kaiya App experience.
Kaiya Architect: Opens Kaiya Architect, where you connect data and build or refine a Business View through conversation.
Sample prompts
Below the mode pills, Tellius shows up to three ready-made questions you can click to run immediately. These prompts are generated from your Business View and reference the real dimensions, metrics, and entities in your data, so the questions are relevant to what you actually have connected. Click any prompt to send it to Kaiya as your question.
Briefings
The briefings section collects the outputs of your scheduled Missions and delivers them directly to the home screen, so you do not have to open the Missions module to see the latest results.
View all in Missions: The link on the right of the section header opens the full list of briefings inside the Missions module.
Briefing cards: Each card represents one Mission output and shows:
A headline describing the finding, such as "Feature adoption tied to lower churn".
A short summary of the result.
A Read briefing link that opens the full briefing in Missions page.
The name of the Mission.
Briefings only appear here after a Mission has run. If you have not set up a Mission yet, this section shows an empty state instead.
Content tabs: Recently Viewed and Suggested for You
At the bottom of the home page are two tabs that act as a launchpad into your content. The active tab is underlined, and a FILTER ↓ control on the right lets you narrow the cards that are shown.
Recently Viewed
This tab picks up where you left off, surfacing the Apps, Vizpads, Business Views, and conversations you were last working on. Each card shows the artifact type, the artifact name, a small preview of its content, and how long ago you opened it. Click a card to reopen that artifact.
Suggested for You
This tab surfaces high-interaction resources from across your workspace: shared Vizpads, Missions, Apps, conversations, and Business Views that other users in your environment are actively engaging with. It helps you discover conversations, Vizpads etc. that colleagues working in the same Business View environment find useful.
Suggested for You is a rename and continuation of the Trending tab from previous releases. The underlying behavior, which surfaces the most-engaged resources across the workspace is the same.
All content surfaced on the home page respects role-based access control (RBAC). You only see artifacts and resources you have permission to access.
The Day 0 (new user) home page
Tellius adapts the home page to where you are in your lifecycle. A brand-new user: one who has logged in but has not yet configured any data sources or Business Views sees a guided "Day 0" version of the home page whose entire purpose is to get data connected. This solves the blank-slate problem. A new user can move directly from a fresh login to a live Kaiya conversation, with starter questions auto-generated from the new Business View.
The Day 0 flow
A new user is routed into Kaiya Architect on first login. From there, the flow is:
Configure a data source. You can set up the data connection directly from the Kaiya Architect chat, with real-time validation as you enter the connection details.
Build a first Business View through the Kaiya Architect conversation.
An "Open in Kaiya" link appears once the Business View is published.
Kaiya opens with six auto-generated starter questions waiting in the thread. These questions reference the real dimensions, metrics, and entities you just configured.
The Search anything… bar (⌘ K) is available in the top-right corner. However, because no data is connected, the Ask Kaiya input is disabled. Its placeholder reads "Connect a data source to start asking Kaiya anything," the status text in the box reads "No dataset connected," and the attach, voice, and send controls are inactive. The four mode pills (Deep Insight, Mission, App, Kaiya Architect) are also shown in a dimmed, inactive state.
Connect data to bring Kaiya to life
The center of the Day 0 page is a prominent card that directs you to connect data. The card offers two buttons:
Connect a data source → Opens the Add new connectors screen, where you choose a structured or unstructured source to connect.
Open Kaiya Architect → Opens Kaiya Architect, where you connect data and build your first Business View conversationally.
When you open Kaiya Architect, you first see the welcome screen. Two buttons let you choose how to begin:
Browse Data: Browse your existing data before building.
Quick Start: Start building a Business View from scratch.
Once you begin, Kaiya Architect opens into a two-panel workspace.
The left side is the Chat panel, where you converse with Kaiya to build your Business View. It has a ＋ button and a paperclip (attach) icon beside the input, plus a send (up-arrow) button.
The right side displays what Kaiya is building as you talk. It has four tabs and a close (✕) button in the top-right corner:
Plan: The Kaiya-generated plan for your Business View.
Diagram: A visual diagram of the Business View being built.
YAML: The underlying YAML definition of the Business View.
Data Sources: The data sources connected to the Business View.
Empty briefings state
Below the card, the Latest briefings section shows an empty state because no Mission has run yet. The Recently Viewed and Suggested for You tabs and the FILTER ↓ control are present at the bottom but contain no items yet.
The Day 1 (getting started) home page
Once you have created your first Business View, the home page moves into its "Day 1" state. The Ask Kaiya input and mode pills are now active, and sample prompts appear that are curated to the Business View you just created. Apps shared by your team also begin to surface in the content tabs. Until your first Mission runs, however, the briefings section still shows an empty state.
In this state, the briefings section reads "No missions running yet". Two buttons help you start:
Create your first mission → Begins setting up your first Mission.
Browse mission templates: Opens a set of ready-made Mission templates you can start from.
