Power BI was developed by Microsoft and first released to the public in 2013. It originated from a project called "Project Crescent" and was designed to provide business intelligence capabilities to non-technical users, enabling them to analyze and visualize data easily. The goal was to democratize data analysis, making it accessible for organizations of all sizes.
