Limitations
Point AI is powerful but has some limitations to be aware of:
| Limitation | Details |
|---|---|
| Data currency | AI responses are based on the most recently refreshed data. If a refresh job hasn't run, the data may be slightly stale. |
| Complex calculations | For highly complex custom calculations, use the Live Analytics module directly. |
| Forward-looking statements | Point AI does not make predictions or forecasts — it only describes historical and current data. |
| Unstructured data | Point AI works with structured investment data. It cannot analyse documents, emails, or other unstructured content. |
