When to use STYD
STYD is useful when your team needs fast, reliable answers from database data without building a new dashboard or writing SQL manually.

When not to use STYD
STYD is powerful, but it should not replace every data workflow.
Highly formatted financial statements
Manual data correction workflows
Write-back database operations
Critical decisions without validation
Legal, tax or investment advice for your situation
For important business decisions, use STYD to explore and understand the data, then review how the answer was calculated or validate the result with your team.
Simple rule
If the answer lives in your database and can be retrieved safely with a read-only query, STYD is usually a strong fit.
STYD can also explain a term, suggest what to do about a figure, or draft an email. That part is labelled General knowledge and does not replace a professional.
