Introducing Nova by Gravity

The Problem

Health systems generate huge amount of data every single day - from EHRs and claims to financial and operational systems. But turning that information into quick, reliable decisions? That’s still a headache for most leaders. Too often, executives and managers find themselves waiting days, or even weeks, for basic reports. And when those reports finally land, the numbers don’t always line up between departments.

The problem isn’t a lack of data. It’s that the data is stuck in too many different places, EHRs, claims systems, spreadsheets, financial tools, you name it. Teams end up copying and pasting between platforms or chasing down analysts just to answer a simple question. It’s slow, frustrating, and worse, it creates confusion. If everyone’s looking at different numbers, how can anyone be sure what’s right?

Solution Pivot

Nova fixes this.

Nova is Gravity’s BI Agent. You ask a question in plain English. Nova turns it into trusted SQL, builds the right chart or dashboard, and suggests what to explore next—so decisions happen in minutes, not weeks.

Nova gives you one source of truth by running on Gravity’s unified, governed healthcare data across clinical, claims, finance, and operations. It’s fast and simple—ask in plain English, get a chart or small dashboard in seconds, drill down, and share a link

How it works

The Nova journey comes alive through three pivotal steps within Gravity, each moving us closer to our vision.

1. Build
“Show readmission rate by DRG for the last 6 months.”

2. Consume
Nova compiles governed SQL, runs it, and renders the best visualization or a small dashboard. Metric definitions are shown so everyone sees the same truth.

3. Act
Nova suggests next-best questions (NBQs) and actions—filter payers, zoom to facilities, open outliers, save a cohort, or share a link with your team.

When AI meets BI

Nova is an AI-native BI agent that understands what you mean. Type “readmit” and Nova knows you want readmission metrics, not a keyword match. It reads your intent, compiles governed SQL on Gravity’s healthcare semantic layer, and returns the right chart or dashboard in seconds, no SQL and no jargon.

Built for healthcare, Nova understands terms like “HbA1c” or “blood pressure control” and brings back the correct cohorts, definitions, and performance views. From clinicians to executives, anyone can ask naturally and see trusted answers immediately.

From Insights to Actions

With Nova, finding the answer is just the start. Ask a question—say, “readmission rate by DRG in the last 6 months”—and Nova turns it into governed SQL, runs the query, and shows an interactive chart. Instead of scanning raw numbers, you see the result visualized in seconds, with clear definitions so everyone sees the same thing.

But the real power comes from the smart follow-up actions Nova suggests. Right next to your chart, you’ll see options to refine your question further or to add the visualization directly into a Dashboard. Whether it’s a brand-new Dashboard or one you’ve already built, you’re just one click away from turning a single question into a living, shareable dashboard. 

‍

‍

And you’re always in full control. Once a chart is in a Dashboard, you can reposition it, resize it, or combine it with other insights. If you want even deeper customization, the integrated SQL Workbench allows you to run your own SQL queries and save the results as cohorts. From there, you can design fully custom visualizations, configuring the X-axis, Y-axis, and selecting a cohort as the data source, to build charts that reflect exactly what you want to track. 

‍

‍

Nova blends intelligent automation with full human control. It gives you smart suggestions to move fast, but never locks you in—you can always fine-tune, customize, and create from scratch.

Real-World Impact

For a Chief Medical Officer, staying on top of clinical outcomes across the entire health system is both critical and challenging. Imagine a CMO who wants to understand how well her hospitals are managing chronic conditions like diabetes. In the past, she would have had to request a report from the analytics team, wait weeks for the numbers to be compiled, and then sift through spreadsheets that only told part of the story.

With Gravity Nova, she simply types in: “Average HbA1c levels for diabetic patients in the last 6 months by facility.” In seconds, a chart appears, highlighting which locations are doing well and which ones need attention. With one click, she pins the chart to her dashboard so it’s always updated in real time. Curious about the high outliers, she refines the search with the smart follow-up option: “Show me patients with HbA1c greater than 9.” Gravity Nova instantly generates the SQL, runs the query, and returns a cohort she can save and share with her care management team.

‍

‍

Now, instead of waiting weeks for static reports, the CMO has a living dashboard where she can track chronic disease management, drill down into patient cohorts, and coordinate interventions with her teams. This kind of immediate visibility helps her not only improve outcomes for patients but also demonstrate progress to the board and regulatory bodies. Nova turns what used to be a slow, frustrating process into a daily tool for better care and smarter leadership.

Conclusion: The Future of Connected Care

In today’s healthcare environment, data should be a source of clarity—not confusion. Nova brings every piece of information into one place, makes it intelligent and context-aware, and empowers every user to take action in real time. From executives monitoring system-wide KPIs, to clinicians tracking patient outcomes, to analysts customizing cohorts and dashboards, Nova gives healthcare leaders the speed, control, and confidence they need to turn data into better decisions.

The result is more than just faster insights—it’s a foundation for connected care, where teams collaborate around a single source of truth and patients benefit from timely, informed action.
