Embedded business intelligence (BI) in your platform to allow your users to build and customize their dashboards and reports. Your users get their data questions answered within your application without seeking support or data cut from your team.
This is Ka Ling, Co-founder and CEO of Upsolve AI. My Co-founder @sergueib and I spent many years at Palantir and witness how building good analytics could look like. And we realize how hard it is for SaaS companies to build great analytics solution for their end users. As a result, we decided to build Upsolve AI.
We help software companies to build and offer analytics to their users in an easy manner. Within our platform, you could simply set up connection to your databases, build dashboards in an intuitive point-and-click manner, and then easily embed it in your product!
We are super excited to release our Embedded Business Intelligence (BI) feature! It is almost impossible for any SaaS company to build a single perfect dashboard that meets all of its users' needs. Because of this, SaaS products often need to provide data exports via CSV downloads or expose APIs for data extraction. Our Embedded BI feature allows your end users to customize their dashboards or build their own—all within your product! This increases usage retention, promotes user satisfaction, and enables users to make the most informed decisions based on data insights.
If you are interested in give it a try, go to: https://hub.upsolve.ai/. You could easily connect to a Postgres or Clickhouse database, start building and embed dashboards as well as business intelligence in your platform! If you wish to connect to other databases, SaaS platform or APIs to embedded business intelligence, reach out here https://calendly.com/kaling-aqk/upsolve-initial-exploration!
@sergueib@kalingwu this would have been so so useful at my previous gig, will keep an eye on it! Would love text-to-dashboard features at some point too, getting too used to have AI interface all my interactions with dbs, data :)
@sergueib@kalingwu Seems like a great feature that provides leverage to engineering teams while delivering sophisticated customized dashboards to customers.
@pederzh we have specific APIs that our customers use to share with us what each end user could see in terms of data as well as the action they could perform in building their own dashboard!
This is fantastic, Ka Ling! Making analytics more accessible and customizable directly within SaaS products is such a powerful value proposition. The Embedded BI feature truly a big thing for user retention and satisfaction. I love how it empowers end users to build and tailor their own dashboards without relying on CSV exports or APIs.
Congrats on the launch!
Best wishes and sending lots of wins to the team :) @kalingwu
This looks like a powerful way for SaaS companies to offer custom dashboards without building everything from scratch. Love the idea of letting end users tailor their own dashboards in-product, huge for boosting retention. Congrats on the launch!
Ka Ling, Sergs, Dan, and Gihan - this is such a smart solution! Embedded BI has always been a pain point for app developers, and you're making it seamlessly accessible.
The ability for users to build and customize their own dashboards is a game-changer. It's like giving your users a superpower - they can answer their own data questions without waiting for support tickets or custom reports. That's going to save so many development hours!
Love seeing the perfect early rating - it really speaks to the user experience you've created. The fact that this is your second launch shows you're iterating and improving based on real user feedback.
Really curious about:
What inspired you to tackle embedded BI specifically?
How are developers using this in ways you didn't expect?
Any interesting insights about how end users interact with the customization features?
The free tier option is fantastic for developers who want to test the waters. Quick questions:
How complex can the custom dashboards get?
Are there any particular industries where you're seeing strong adoption?
What's your vision for the future of embedded analytics?
The strong launch engagement shows there's a real need for this in the developer community. You're essentially democratizing business intelligence for apps of all sizes!
Keep pushing the boundaries of what's possible with embedded analytics - you're making data visualization accessible to everyone! 📊✨
@xi_z thank you for this detailed comment. Addressing some of your questions one by one:
What inspired you to tackle embedded BI specifically? We worked at Palantir and saw how analytics could be done well for enterprises. We want to make sure the smaller guys can do it too. And to start with, we want to first give analytics building power to B2B SaaS companies so they can build great analytics for their users.
How are developers using this in ways you didn't expect? We end up having users using us for internal analytics and wanting to integrate data from like Hubspot and Stripe with data from their database. Because of that, we will be releasing our Data Plane feature soon. So our users can interact with data from databases, SaaS tools and APIs all via a single SQL-based interface. They can then do internal analytics on top of the harmonized data.
Any interesting insights about how end users interact with the customization features? Chart Marketplace is not a complicated feature to build, but end users love the simplicity of it!
The free tier option is fantastic for developers who want to test the waters. Quick questions:
How complex can the custom dashboards get? They could get very complex. Feel free to check out some examples here: https://upsolve.ai/customer-examples
Are there any particular industries where you're seeing strong adoption? Fintech and Supply Chain loves us
What's your vision for the future of embedded analytics? These analytics will be AI-powered, so users ask a question and they will get the relevant metrics and insights generated automatically. We will launch this feature soon once we get more customers to try it out and we get to improve it more.

@manuhortet we actually have the AI interface in beta already! If you want to check it out, feel free to grab a slot from my Calendly: https://calendly.com/kaling-aqk/upsolve-initial-exploration
@sergueib @kalingwu All the Best!
@sergueib @kalingwu Seems like a great feature that provides leverage to engineering teams while delivering sophisticated customized dashboards to customers.
@sergueib @kalingwu Can I connect to any database?
@kalingwu and @sergueib congrats on the launch!
This looks great, especially the embedded BI feature that lets users customize their own dashboards!
How do you handle security permissions when users create custom dashboards?
Excited to see where this goes! 🚀
Upsolve AI
@pederzh we have specific APIs that our customers use to share with us what each end user could see in terms of data as well as the action they could perform in building their own dashboard!

@whatshivamdo thank you so much! Our goal is no SaaS platform should has a CSV export button anymore :D
Congrats on the launch! Really exciting to see such a configurable dashboard tool in action.
I did experience a slight cognitive overload. I recorded a quick video https://www.loom.com/share/142088cd098e48c097db87bb05a9c348?sid=f54a85b3-f5ed-4a0c-b8da-c5848d7dd2ad with a few low-hanging fruit ideas to help smooth out the experience (these are just quick wins, not a deep dive).
I truly believe that refining user flows will make a huge difference, and I hope you’ll explore that further in the future. Great work!
Upsolve AI
@anton_osipov thank you for sharing, we'll for sure watch the video. Appreciate the feedback!
