What Basedash is

Basedash is a business intelligence platform for teams asking questions about live company data in plain English. Its AI analyst produces governed answers and validates generated SQL against connected schemas, with the SQL displayed alongside each answer. Users can describe what they want to track and have Basedash assemble charts, KPIs, and dashboard layouts. Teams can also define dimensions, measures, and segments once for use in chat, dashboards, and automations.

A managed DuckDB warehouse centralizes data synced from more than 750 sources. Listed direct connections include PostgreSQL, MySQL, Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift, and Databricks, alongside SaaS connectors such as Salesforce, HubSpot, and Stripe. Users can ask the agent questions in Slack and receive chart images in the thread; scheduled reports and alerts can go to Slack and email, and daily briefings can summarize metric changes. Deployment options include managed cloud, private VPC, and self-hosting, including Docker, Kubernetes, and Helm. Basedash lists SOC 2 Type II certification and multiple access and encryption controls, and says customer data is never used to train AI models. The Startup plan costs $1,000 a month plus AI usage, for up to 25 users.
