What if business intelligence didn't stop at answering what happened, but could finally explain why? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I sit back down with Alberto Pan, Chief Technology Officer at Denodo, to unpack how Deep Query is redefining enterprise AI through reasoning, transparency, and context.
We explore how Deep Query functions as an AI reasoning agent capable of performing open-ended research across live, governed enterprise data. Instead of relying on pre-built dashboards or static reports, it builds and executes multi-step analyses through Denodo's logical data layer, unifying fragmented data sources in real time. Alberto explains how this semantic layer provides the business meaning and governance that traditional GenAI tools lack, transforming AI from a surface-level Q&A system into a trusted analytical partner.
Our conversation also digs into the bigger picture of explainable AI. Deep Query reports include a full appendix of executed queries, allowing users to trace every insight back to its source. Alberto breaks down why this level of auditability matters for enterprise trust and how Denodo's support for the Model Context Protocol (MCP) opens the door to more interoperable, agentic AI systems.
As we discuss how Deep Query compares with RAG models and data lakehouses, Alberto offers a glimpse into the future of business intelligence—one where analysts become guides for AI-driven research assistants, and decision-makers gain faster, deeper, and more transparent insights than ever before.
So what does the rise of reasoning agents like Deep Query mean for the next generation of enterprise AI? And how close are we to a world where AI truly understands the why behind the data? Tune in and share your thoughts after listening.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
