Creating a Report
Use Alloy AI to generate custom reports from your mission data
Every mission gets an auto-generated report. But you can also create custom reports through Alloy AI — reports that pull from multiple missions, focus on specific topics, or answer questions unique to your use case.
Starting a report
Open the chat from anywhere — click Alloy AI on the right edge of any page, or use the Slack bot — and ask for a report. The chat has full context on your data regardless of where you start.
Example prompts
- "Create a report summarizing performance across my last 10 missions"
- "Compare battery drain rates between firmware v2.2 and v2.3"
- "Analyze all campus survey missions for anomalies"
- "Build a cross-device comparison for missions from this week"
What reports can contain
Custom reports can include a mix of:
- Narrative analysis — AI-written text explaining findings
- Charts — interactive line, bar, or scatter plots
- Maps — geographic visualizations with mission paths
- Metrics — key stats with trends (up/down/neutral)
- Timelines — chronological event sequences
- Images — galleries from mission data
- Downloadable files — CSV exports or processed data
Refining your report
After Alloy AI generates a report, iterate through conversation:
- "Add a section comparing latency across devices"
- "Focus more on the GPS signal loss events"
- "Include a chart showing altitude over time"
- "Remove the battery section and expand on navigation"
Go back and forth as many times as you need. The report updates with each request.
Recurring reports
Alloy generates the report automatically on schedule and adds it to your Reports page.
Tip: Be specific in your request — "compare battery performance for missions uploaded in the last week" gets better results than "make a report about batteries". Start broad, then iterate to refine.
