# ASKx > ASKx is an AI data analyst assistant that managers and analysts question in Persian (and English) about their business data. The language model never produces the numbers: governed tools compute them from the organisation's own data, and a validator matches every number in the answer to its source before it is shown. ASKx runs entirely on the organisation's servers with local open-source models. ASKx answers questions about an organisation's business data in Persian and English. Key facts: - Numbers in answers are never generated by the language model; tools compute them from the organisation's data and a validator checks each one against its source. - Explanations label each driver as evidence in the data or as a hypothesis. - Forecasts are published only when they beat a naive baseline in rolling backtests. - Users can attach PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint files and images (Persian and English OCR). - It is self-hosted on the organisation's servers and uses local open-source models by default (vLLM, Ollama, LM Studio, llama.cpp); external providers only if an admin allows them. - It is industry-agnostic: retail, banking and insurance, telecom, pharma, manufacturing, e-commerce, energy, market research. ## Pages - [ASKx | AI Data Analyst for Your Business Data, Built for Persian](https://askx.ir/en/): English home page - [ASKx | دستیار هوشمند تحلیل داده به زبان فارسی](https://askx.ir/): Persian home page (default) - [Full text for LLMs](https://askx.ir/llms-full.txt): every section of both pages ## Optional - [App sign-in](https://askx.ir/app/): the ASKx web app (requires an account)
