Data analytics for small business — without the data team.

You don't need a data scientist, a $50k consultant, or a six-month implementation to be data-driven. Illuminated Intelligence is data analytics for small business the way it should be: connected to the tools you already use, focused on the metrics that move revenue, and explained in language anyone on your team can understand.
  • Pre-built KPI dashboards for revenue, marketing, sales, ops, and customers
  • Marketing ROI tracked across every channel automatically
  • Sales analytics that show which reps, products, and segments drive growth
  • E-commerce analytics with true product-level profitability
  • AI insights delivered every morning — no dashboard staring required
  • One platform replaces five disconnected tools

Why data analytics for small business is different

Enterprise data analytics is about scale — petabytes of data, hundreds of analysts, complex governance. Small business data analytics is about clarity. You're not trying to optimize a global supply chain; you're trying to know whether last month was good, why, and what to do this month to make it better. The technology required is fundamentally different, but the entire BI software industry has spent twenty years building tools for the first problem, then slapping "for small business" stickers on the side.

Illuminated Intelligence was designed from day one for the second problem. We give you the answers, not the analyst chair.

KPI dashboards for small business — already built for you

Most SMB owners don't know where to start when someone says "build a dashboard." We solve that by shipping pre-built KPI dashboards for the metrics that matter most to growing companies: monthly recurring revenue, gross margin, customer acquisition cost, lifetime value, churn, repeat purchase rate, lead-to-close conversion, marketing ROI by channel, and 30+ more. Each dashboard auto-configures from your connected data — see your numbers in minutes, not in a custom-build project.

Marketing analytics for small business

Marketing analytics for small business owners has historically meant either trusting last-click attribution in Google Analytics or paying for a six-figure attribution platform built for Fortune 500 brands. We do something better: we join your ad spend across Google, Meta, TikTok, and email with your QuickBooks or Shopify revenue automatically, then show you which channels actually produce paying customers — and which ones produce a lot of clicks and no money.

Sales analytics that drives the right behavior

For B2B and services businesses, sales analytics for small business owners should answer three questions: who are my best reps, what does my pipeline really look like, and what's my honest forecast for next quarter? We pull data from HubSpot, Pipedrive, or Salesforce and combine it with revenue actuals to give you rep scorecards, win-rate analysis, deal aging, and a confidence-scored forecast — all without spreadsheets.

E-commerce analytics with true product-level profit

Shopify and Amazon dashboards tell you revenue. They don't tell you profit. Our e-commerce analytics solution joins order data with your COGS, payment fees, refunds, ad spend, and shipping to give you actual contribution margin per product, per SKU, and per customer cohort. The first time most of our customers see this view, they discover that 15-30% of their SKUs are unprofitable — and they fix it the same day.

AI-powered analytics: ask any question, get an answer

Dashboards are the floor, not the ceiling. The real power of modern small business analytics comes from being able to ask any ad-hoc question — "why did Tuesday revenue dip last week?", "which 50 customers are most at risk of churning?", "what's the highest-ROI campaign I could run this month?" — and get a real answer in seconds. That's exactly what JARVIS, our built-in AI business advisor, does.

● FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between BI and data analytics for small business?

Practically nothing — the terms are used interchangeably. Both refer to using your business data to make better decisions. The difference is mostly marketing: 'BI' tends to imply enterprise complexity, while 'analytics' implies something more accessible. Illuminated Intelligence is both — designed to be as accessible as a consumer app while as powerful as enterprise BI.

I'm a $1M-revenue business. Is this overkill for me?

Not at all — this is exactly who we built the platform for. Most $1M-$10M businesses make decisions on gut feel because the BI tools they've evaluated were priced and designed for $100M+ companies. Our platform is sized and priced for businesses just like yours.

Do you have analytics for service businesses, not just e-commerce?

Yes. We have native integrations and pre-built dashboards for service businesses (Jobber, Housecall Pro, ServiceTitan), professional services, healthcare practices (Mindbody), restaurants (Toast, Square), and more.
