?makers Congrats on the launch! Where did the original idea come from?
Nuno Job
@romanopravdic Depends on the founder you ask. I can only give you my reason. I was running a mid size business (think 150 people) and was tired of the spreadsheet/zapier/custom code nightmare. The things being done shouldn't be done with custom code, and managing zaps sounded insane. Who wants to do that to manage a budget per department? All the vertical solution didn't appeal to me. Price was too high, and we were too early. They targeted CFO and compliance, and we were growth stage and just wanted uncomplicated stuff. We spent so much money building custom stuff. And it was always a nightmare. Decipad came from that problem. When i started using jupyter notebooks it became obvious the narrative (and integrations) would allow me to achieve what i needed without excel. I joined up with Pedro and Kelly and the rest is history.

I implemented a new KPI and bonus structure at the startup I'm working for. When the first quarter of 2023 came to a close, I used Decipad to explain the structure and the bonus calculations for that quarter to the team. Or, more accurately, I had the Decipad Notebook I set up do the explaining. The feedback from the team was so positive that I've been using Decipad since then whenever I needed to explain narratives involving numbers. Thank you for the great product ☀️✌🏼

@tolga_dizmen Thank you Tolga. Your KPI and bonus design structure is something every startup would benefit from! You've been such an amazing collaborator. Excited to continue the partnership.

Interesting idea. I am a person who is not good in numbers. Especially in visualization of the numbers. I think it’s good for students too!

What's up team! Congratulations on launching the public beta of Decipad. It seems like a fantastic tool that brings transparency to data storytelling. A few suggestions that came to mind: 1. Predictive Analysis: Given the wealth of data the users will be inputting, consider introducing features that can perform predictive analytics. By providing users with potential future scenarios based on their current data, you can help them make even more informed decisions. 2. Integration with Data Visualization Tools: Your users would likely benefit from being able to visualize their data within Decipad. Consider integrating with popular data visualization tools or developing your own in-app visualization features. 3. Customizable Reports: Create a feature that allows users to customize the way they present their data narratives. Different templates for different industries or presentation styles could make it even more appealing for a broad range of users. I wish you and the Decipad team the best of luck with your project. I am eager to see how your product evolves over time!
