I spent the last month fixing things that were driving me crazy
Every time I built a dashboard for one client, I had to rebuild it for the next. Creating clients, reports, dashboards, data sources felt like clicking through ten different pages just to do one simple thing
So we made some changes
Now in ZapDigits
• You can create everything from the sidebar. No more jumping around
• Any dashboard can become a template you reuse
• Templates have their own gallery so you can see yours and ours in one place
• More Google Analytics metrics to get better insights
• Each dashboard can have its own look
• The homepage got a fresh, cleaner feel
We also fixed drag-and-drop in the editor, improved embeds, and added a refresh button on the share page
It is not a flashy update but it already makes life a lot easier and I hope it does for you too

I saw a similar service just yesterday—it really makes life so much easier. When are you planning to launch it?

@maria_anosova Thank you.
Hello Aria
The sidebar approach for creating everything makes a lot of sense. Dashboard tools often fall into the same trap - they're powerful but route you through a wizard-style flow that interrupts your thinking. Putting creation in-context is the right fix. We thought about something similar building Hello Aria (AI assistant via WhatsApp/Telegram, launching April 10th on PH) - instead of making users fill out setup forms, they just describe what they want in conversation. The friction to "first value" matters more than almost any feature. What drove the decision to give templates their own gallery rather than just shared/public dashboards? Curious whether discoverability of templates was the main driver.
