Building & Product

How do I get a live dashboard of my business metrics with AI instead of wrestling with BI tools?

Three speeds: paste an export into Claude and get an interactive dashboard artifact in minutes, have Claude Code or Cursor build a small Streamlit or web dashboard against your real database, or stand up open-source Metabase and let its AI assistant write the queries. Founders routinely get a usable KPI view in an afternoon; the real discipline is defining each metric once so the AI computes it the same way every week. Claude's Artifacts now support live, shareable dashboards, which covers most weekly-review needs without any BI seat licences.
