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.

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!!

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.

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!

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.

Hey everyone, Max here from Basedash.

Today we're launching Basedash for Excel: drop a spreadsheet into the agent and get a live dashboard back — and export any chart's data straight back to Excel when you need it.

It works both ways. Upload an .xlsx and the AI data analyst reads every row, infers the columns and totals, writes the queries, and builds the charts — "turn this into a dashboard", "what's driving the Q2 jump?", "break revenue down by month". Then "Export to Excel" puts the numbers behind any chart back into a .xlsx you can keep working in.

The point is you don't have to leave Excel to get more out of it. Teams that live in spreadsheets get an AI analyst, live dashboards, and real-time collaboration on top of the files they already have.

We've been running our own spreadsheets through this for months — most of our ad-hoc "can you chart this?" files become a shared dashboard in under a minute now.

Happy to answer any questions!
