Hello Product Hunt! 👋 (& thanks for hunting us @nikgraf!) I’m Shinji, founder of Select Star. We’re super excited to launch on Product Hunt today! 🌟 Select Star was born from my love of working with data. Over the last 13 years, I’ve worked as a software engineer, data scientist, business analyst, product manager, and a data startup founder, working with structured and unstructured data across a variety of use cases. While having lots of data is great, I believe that to use it effectively you also need to understand the context around it. And building and maintaining that context is hard if you were to build a data dictionary manually. Select Star is designed to bring you and everyone on your team the full context of data in your organization. Select Star will tell you where the data came from, who’s using it, how they’re using it and what reports/dashboards are already created based on the data. And it does it automatically within the first hours of you connecting your data warehouse and/or BI tools. ✨ We’re excited to bring Select Star to General Availability today with a Free tier. Feel free to ask us anything! 🤗 Cheers 🙌 Shinji

@shinjikim @przemek_kuczynski really awesome to see this live and in the wild! The problem and finding and understanding data sets is so common these days — we are “drowning in data” is something I hear a lot — but SelectStar is a platform that helps sift out what matters with practical tools that help you discover and manage your diverse set of data warehouses and use of those. Amazing stuff @shinjikim and team!!

Collective knowledge for the win! Really dig the concept of a centralized and automated data hub for a whole team. I’m curious if it integrates natively with any social apps or Google Sheets?

Hey @gabe, I'm glad you like the concept! 🤩 - We do have support for Slack. You can search through the catalog directly in Slack as well as get notifications about changes in Select Star. - No direct support for Google Sheets but we do have a Client REST API you can use to integrate with any other tool you'd like - We also support sending webhook notifications for events in Select Star (for example we use it with Zapier) - We also support importing metadata into Select Star from CSV (e.g. descriptions that are missing in your data warehouse) We're also all ears 👂 and once we hear demand for a use case with direct integration for more social apps or Google Sheets we'll definitely go down that path. Would any of the solutions above help with your potential use case?
