The "instant insights from your data" angle is exactly where business tools need to go — most dashboards show you the numbers but make you do all the interpretation yourself.
Curious how Genie handles conflicting signals — like when revenue is up but churn is also up at the same time? Does it surface that tension automatically or does the user need to know to ask for it?
Building AI insights into Zeno Finance for freelancers and the hardest part is knowing which insight is actually worth surfacing vs just adding noise. Would love to know how you approached that prioritization.
I have been close to this product for a long time. What still gets me is watching someone use it for the first time - they come in skeptical, type one question, and within 30 seconds they are already asking a follow-up. That moment where skepticism turns into genuine curiosity is the best signal a product can give you. Really proud of what the team shipped.

@tijana_milasevic1 You are right. The "follow up" question is what hooks people.
I think they realize that to ask that follow up question in the past, they had to go to another dashboard, create a new metric or worse: go ask someone else how to look at the data that way.
Huge congrats to the Databox team on launching this! 📈
I’ve been playing around with the beta for a week leading up to today, and the value it provides is immediate. It’s seriously useful for cutting through the data noise. I really love how it drafts short, contextualized reports and quick visualizations. I even prompted it to turn those insights into complete dashboards that I can send directly to stakeholders on Slack or via email! It perfectly bridges the gap between staring at metrics and actually understanding the insights. Fantastic addition to the platform!
Databox
@alexprime , this is exactly the kind of feedback that makes launch day worth it - thank you for taking the time to share it!
The flow you described - from question, to contextualized insight, to a dashboard you can send straight to stakeholders on Slack or email - is the full loop we designed for. The goal was never just to answer a question, but to make that answer actually usable without five more manual steps in between.
Really glad the beta week paid off and that you got to see it come together. Hope it keeps delivering for you - and would love to hear what you explore next! 🙏🚀
@zigapotocnik I am honestly waiting on a feature where I could set a rules / system prompt and share the Genie next to a report or dashboard to my clients. It would save me additional time. Is that something you're looking to build in the future?
Databox
@alexprime that's a really compelling use case - being able to set context rules for Genie and then share it alongside a report or dashboard with clients would be a natural next step, especially for agencies.
The good news is we're already thinking in that direction. The "Train" feature - where you set business context once and Genie uses it consistently - is something we're actively developing. Extending that into a client-facing sharing experience is a logical extension of it.
I can't commit to a timeline right now, but I'll make sure this specific use case gets in front of the right people on our product team. It's exactly the kind of thing that would multiply the value for agency users.
If you want to stay close to what's coming, keep an eye on databox.com/product-updates - and feel free to drop this as a feature request in our community too! 🙏
Hi @davorin, congrats on the launch. You have 20,000+ customers and a wall of awards from G2, Capterra, Gartner. That's serious social proof. But it's all the way at the bottom. A founder landing on your page has to scroll past features, integrations, and use cases before they see why they should trust you.
That proof could do a lot more work for you if it hit people sooner.
Also noticed the "Unlimited users on every plan" line is buried in the "Before Databox / After Databox" section. That's a massive differentiator. Most BI tools charge per seat. That alone could be a hero line.
Just a thought. Excited to see where Genie goes. Good luck with the launch.
Databox
@taimur_haider1 thank you, really appreciate this thoughtful feedback.
You are absolutely right that trust signals like customer count, awards, and proof points should work harder and show up earlier. The same goes for unlimited users. That is a meaningful differentiator and probably deserves much more prominence than it has today. I’ll make sure to pass this feedback along to our marketing team.
This is exactly the kind of outside perspective that is incredibly valuable, so thank you for taking the time to share it. And thanks again for the kind words about Genie.
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.
Databox
@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'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!
