A new causal inference engine has been developed to address the challenges of determining true cause-and-effect relationships in business analytics, particularly when A/B testing is not feasible. The engine builds a causal graph to classify variables as confounders, mediators, or colliders, guiding whether to adjust for them in analysis. A key feature highlighted is the engine's ability to identify when it cannot provide a reliable estimate, refusing to answer to prevent misleading conclusions. The engine's performance is evaluated using synthetic data where the true causal effects are known. AI
