We just launched MCP Connectors by Databox - give your AI Analyst the why behind every number
... teams using this most, troubleshooting issues or proactively spotting opportunities? Comment from Shivam Kushwaha(@shivam_kushwaha16): Do you think connecting all your tools in one place actually makes all workflows easier or just adds more complexity Comment from
Ziga
Potocnik(@zigapotocnik): @aruna_polosofttech Great question, Aruna. We expect most teams will start with troubleshooting. A number drops, someone asks why, and the answer comes back with the deal, ticket, or conversation behind it. That's the quickest ... ... created task or an updated deal right away. Comment from Shivam Kushwaha(@shivam_kushwaha16): @zigapotocnik yeah I like this approach starting with one connector and adding more only when you actually need them keeps things simple Comment from

When a number moves, where do you actually go to find out why?
... someday list. might take you up on the DM once we've got something worth showing. Comment from Shivam Kushwaha(@shivam_kushwaha16): How accurately can AI identify the real reason behind a metric change? Comment from
Ziga
Potocnik(@zigapotocnik): @galdayan Really good question, and honestly not the primary case we designed for, but it should work. Pre-built connectors today are the usual business tools (HubSpot, Slack, Notion, Asana), but custom connectors work with any MCP server ... ... there yet, that's a solid argument for building it. Would love to hear more about your setup, feel free to DM me, curious how infra-heavy teams end up using this. Comment from

Best day to launch on Product Hunt? Here's what 4,962 launches in 2026 actually show.

, lower bar, most of the effect comes from volume, not some algorithm quirk. If you can't launch on a weekend, Friday is your best bet 205 median points for top 5, the lowest of any weekday and noticeably easier than ... ... Thursday.

We're bringing "set it and forget it" to AI analysis.
... when a model changes underneath us and nobody notices for a week. That's the check I'd want shouting at me, because it's exactly the kind I'd never remember to open a dashboard for. Comment from
Ziga
Potocnik(@zigapotocnik): @cmumulle This is the exact failure mode we built the notification subject around. A single reading always looks fine on its own, it's the trend across readings that tells the real story, and that's easy ... ... hold four weeks of updates in their head. Genie writes the subject line based on the trajectory, not just today's number, so "amber, amber, amber, still amber" would actually get flagged instead of blending in. Comment from

We just launched Artifacts by Databox - turn any answer into a shareable report
... community: what's the report or deck you rebuild by hand every single cycle, the one you'd love to just ask for instead? We're in the comments all day - questions, feedback, and pushback all welcome. Comment from
Ziga
Potocnik(@zigapotocnik): @jernej_jan_kocica Snapshot today. What the recipient sees is frozen at the moment it was generated, it doesn't update after that. Live data is something we're planning next, but it's not there ... ... same reason it's wrong, it reads well. So the feature I'd push toward, building on Jernej's point: make the artifact carry its own provenance - the date range, why the range ends there (nightly sync

We just launched Databox MCP - and it's live on the leaderboard today.
... curious to hear from this community: What's the first question you'd ask your business data if your AI could actually see it? We're in the comments all day - questions, feedback, and pushback all welcome. Comment from
Ziga
Potocnik(@zigapotocnik): @tolstov_gleb great points - role-based metric sets is something we think about a lot. Databox already has 300+ pre-built templates covering most of those personas (CMO, exec, growth), so the data layer is ready ... ... retention, not just conversion? That's the one that always requires 3 tools and a spreadsheet to answer properly. Congrats on the launch, @zigapotocnik what's the latency like when querying against larger metric histories?

How many steps does it take to answer a simple data question?
... from you before we launch: What does that moment actually look like for you? Is it the scrambling to find the right view? The back-and-forth with someone who owns the dashboard? Or something else entirely? Comment from
Ziga
Potocnik(@zigapotocnik): @olivier_jury Olivier, this is exactly the scenario we built for - thanks for laying it out so clearly. On your three points: 1. Charts + numbers in 10s - yes, that's the goal. Inline chart rendering (Widgets ... ... testing this for a product analytics workflow. Is the exported data CSV/JSON, and does it respect the filters I apply before asking the AI? If yes, that fixes my main blocker for using this in reports. Comment from

Custom Integrations is live - connect any API to Databox, no code required
... Stripe. Or honestly, our internal buggy CRM endpoint that'll never see an official integration. Quick one: have you seen anyone hook up an API with OAuth2 + refresh tokens yet? That's usually where these things break. Comment from

Potocnik(@zigapotocnik): @lara_bishop Skipping the engineering ticket is exactly the shift - and product analytics APIs are a perfect fit for this.

Genie launches on Product Hunt tomorrow - here's what we built
... support the launch, the one thing that matters most: make sure you have a Product Hunt account before midnight. Votes from accounts created on launch day carry much less weight in the algorithm. https://www.producthunt.com/prod... Comment from
Ziga
Potocnik(@zigapotocnik): @swati_paliwal Great question, Swati! Genie works within your connected data sources in Databox - so if you have multiple integrations set up, it can pull metrics across them in a single query. For something like "What's driving ...
