If someone asked you to list every person, contractor, and tool that can see your revenue numbers and customer data, could you do it without opening five different settings pages?
I couldn't, for a long time. We added people fast, handed a couple of contractors access to "just take a look," wired up some tools, and quickly didn't know who has access to what.

I would have loved to have this when I was working on sales ops. I've always been a huge fan of Excel, but when working with different stakeholders, and time is tight, I began to realize that my over-familiarity with my own Excel meant, yes, I could translate the data into real world talk, but no, the better I would be able to explain, the less the other stakeholders bothered to look at the data. But you can only explain so much.
Even with something as relatively straightforward as sales ops, data can be organized and presented in a multitude of ways - and the Excel owner cannot take for granted that their over-familiarity with the data translates into others' easy interpretation. Graphs, visuals, and especially dashboards always help. This is a fantastic build.
Questions:
1) Is the dashboard (before exporting back to Excel) interactive? can a user interact with the interface to generate multiple queries?
2) Is there a prompter to suggest or add different inferences that maybe the AI had not thought about?
3) I'm assuming the following doesn't exist: it would be fantastic to be able to create personalized dashboards for a,b,c stakeholders - based on the same data. For when you know who prioritizes with what, and for when you have an agenda, what data could hit a note with each person.

@jitain agreed, thanks!
Everything on the dashboard is interactive, and users can even ask our AI questions about the data, or make changes (if they have permission)
The creator can ask the AI to build any specific charts they want, or let the AI decide what looks important
This is possible! You can use an Excel file to create multiple personalized dashboards, then share access to those with just the right stakeholders. Basedash gives you lots of control over data access permissions and governance.
@maxmusing brilliant stuff!

People model, forecast, and decide in Excel every day, and that work is good. Unfortunately, we've found that things often break down when you try to share it. You send a file, someone opens last week's version, and the chart you spent an hour on lives in a tab nobody else opens.
Basedash for Excel keeps the file you already have and makes it live. The AI analyst writes the queries and builds the charts. Your team works off one dashboard. When you need the underlying numbers, they go straight back to .xlsx.
We built it because we wanted it ourselves. Happy to answer anything!!
Congrats on the launch. I know how much work goes into shipping. Small team here. I mostly need revenue trends and customer counts. I am curious if saved metrics give you the same answer every month when you ask again, or if the AI still changes the logic each time.
Build Check
Yeah Max! So many years building dashboard through spreadsheet's data almost made me crazy. It's super useful and actually a time saver one. Wish you all the best here!

Thanks @german_merlo1!
Spreadsheets are where data goes to get stuck, so turning any Excel file into a live dashboard without rebuilding it is genuinely useful. The one-step part is what sells it. Congrats on the launch.

Appreciate it @eitan_elnekave! Nobody wants useful data to stay stuck in sheets.
