AI-powered business intelligence and database interface with chat-based data analysis, dashboards, and automations

Basedash automations can now attach scheduled CSV exports to Slack and email.

◆Current state
Basedash automations can now attach a CSV on every run in Slack, or add a Download CSV link to email. Postgres, Supabase, Redshift, MySQL and PlanetScale connections gain a Verify server certificate option that checks the database's identity and hostname, including over SSH tunnels. Earlier in October came view-only members, a connector gallery, Slack DMs and an iPhone app.
◆Where it's heading
Basedash is filling in what teams need to adopt an AI-first BI tool widely: cheap read-only seats, delivery through Slack, email and mobile, and security settings that IT will ask about. The chat-built dashboards and MCP write from September remain the core; recent work is about rollout across an organization.
◆Prediction
Expect more scheduled delivery options and admin and security controls, such as SSO and audit features, as Basedash targets larger teams.

◆Recent moves

  1. 1d ago

    Introducing view-only members in Basedash

    An announcement post for view-only members, a feature the changelog already shipped on October 16. Nothing new ships here; it is a re-announcement of the read-only seat.

  2. 5d ago

    Introducing scheduled CSV exports in Basedash

    Automations can attach a CSV on every run to Slack or email. It turns Basedash into a scheduled reporting tool for people who want raw data, not just charts.

  3. 6d ago

    Database connections can verify their certificates

    A Verify server certificate option checks a database's identity and hostname before credentials are sent, including through SSH tunnels. A security control that IT reviews will look for.

  4. 13d ago

    View-only members are here

    View-only members can open shared dashboards, charts and chat history, filter, drill down and export, but cannot edit, chat or run automations. It extends the push to reach non-analyst audiences, after Slack DMs and mobile, with a safe read-only role.

  5. 14d ago

    Introducing the Basedash Connector gallery

    Every connector now has its own page with connect, docs and sync controls, plus previews of the dashboards, Slack alerts and cross-source questions it supports. After a run of new surfaces for asking questions, this targets activation: getting data connected in the first place.

    Message Basedash directly in Slack

    Users can now ask Basedash questions in a private Slack DM and get the same charts and analysis as in a channel thread. It's another surface for the chat analyst, two days after mobile, and lowers the cost of asking a question no one else needs to see.
