We've spent the last few months building Genie, an AI analyst inside Databox. Tomorrow it goes live on Product Hunt.
The short version: you ask a question about your data in plain language, Genie finds the right metrics, runs the analysis, and returns an answer with a chart in seconds. No SQL, no waiting on someone else.
If you've been following along in this forum, thank you the conversations here genuinely shaped how we think about the product.
We go live at midnight PT. If you want to 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.
Top! As someone on the sales floor every day, having instant access to performance data without needing a BI tool or writing SQL is huge. I asked Genie which deals are most at risk this month and got a prioritized list right away. No report to build, no analyst to ping. Highly recommend for sales teams.

@ales_kotnik1 , the "which deals are most at risk this month" example is perfect - keep sharing those! 🙌
That's exactly the kind of question that used to require a BI request, a wait, and a spreadsheet nobody fully trusted. Now it's just... an answer. Instantly. And the sales rep can act on it the same day.
The fact that you're using it on the sales floor every day and finding that kind of value is the best real-world proof point we could ask for on launch day. Thank you for sharing it here! 🙏🚀
Databox
Databox's AI tools (even during the beta period) have drastically changed how I manage the business. I'm able to get insight into performance into anything at any time. I can do a deep dive analysis once per week that helps me know where to focus and what questions to ask the team. It's truly like having a full-time analyst available to me, one that can answer questions instantly and never gets overwhelmed with requests.
Excited to hear how others are using this and how it'll help them.
This is huge for my weekly and monthly marketing reporting. Dashboards are great, but Genie is faster and easier to get performance answers on the spot. I've already been using it for several weeks while in beta, and I now have a standard prompt I use to get weekly insights on our marketing leads, pipeline, and sources in less than 2 mins. Saves a tone of time AND helps me answer ad hoc leadership questions re: marketing performance much faster. Huge win!
I saw a post on linkedin that you were coming out with a new chatbot so decided to give it a shot.
To be honest it is one of the cleanest and well chatbots I've seen in a long time. It especially surprised me with the diagrams it made and just how well it worked for just coming out! Good job!
Databox
@mai_marincic , thank you - this genuinely made our day! 🙏
Really glad LinkedIn brought you here, and even more glad the product delivered. Charts are something we put a lot of thought into - when you're asking about your data, a clean chart that actually answers the question is worth a thousand words.
Hope you stick around - it only gets better from here! 🚀
Congrats to the whole team on this launch. It has been a long road and seeing it out in the world is genuinely satisfying.
If you are a PM tired of waiting on the data team for every small metric, this one is for you.
Databox
@uros_soukup , this one hits different coming from someone who's been on the journey with us - thank you! 🙏
And that last line is exactly the use case we kept coming back to during building. The PM who needs to know if a metric moved, why it moved, and what to do about it - but doesn't have a data team on speed dial. That back-and-forth is such a productivity killer, and it compounds across every team in the company.
Genie is very much for that person. Ask the question, get the answer, move on.
Really glad to see it out in the world too. Long road indeed - worth it! 🚀
@zigapotocnik, exactly that. We kept coming back to the same friction again and again, so it’s great to finally see it solved in a way that feels simple and useful. Proud of what the team shipped
Big day for the team! Really proud of what we shipped. If you are in sales and rely on numbers to hit your targets, give Genie a try - you will not go back to the old way.
Databox
@stefan_guslov1 , means a lot seeing this from you - you've been a big part of what we shipped today, thank you! 🙏
And that sales use case is real. When your quota depends on the numbers, you can't afford to wait two days for a report or dig through three dashboards to find one answer. Genie puts it right at your fingertips.
Big day indeed - let's go! 🚀
Super proud to be part of the team behind this.
As a sales consultant, I’m always careful about what I recommend vs. what I actually use. Genie is both.
Use it every week, not just in demos 😄
Huge congrats to everyone who made this happen.
