Genie launches on Product Hunt tomorrow - here's what we built
We've spent the last few months building Genie, an AI analyst inside Databox. Tomorrow it goes live on Product Hunt.
The short version: you ask a question about your data in plain language, Genie finds the right metrics, runs the analysis, and returns an answer with a chart in seconds. No SQL, no waiting on someone else.
If you've been following along in this forum, thank you the conversations here genuinely shaped how we think about the product.
We go live at midnight PT. If you want to support the launch, the one thing that matters most: make sure you have a Product Hunt account before midnight. Votes from accounts created on launch day carry much less weight in the algorithm.
What's the most frustrating part of getting answers from your data?
We've been building Genie - an AI analyst inside Databox, and one thing kept coming up in user research: people don't lack data. They lack fast answers.
Dashboards exist. Reports get built. But when someone asks "why are signups down this week?" or "are we on pace to hit our revenue target?" - getting a clear answer still takes hours.
We're launching Genie on Product Hunt on March 18th, and we'd love to hear from you before we do:
What's the moment where your current analytics setup lets you down most?
How much do you trust AI agents?
With the advent of clawdbots, it's as if we've all lost our inhibitions and "put our lives completely in their hands."
I'm all for delegating work, but not giving them too much personal/sensitive stuff to handle.
