Example

示例

Hey Product Hunt!

DataFlow turns raw SQL queries into visual dashboards in seconds.

As a data engineer, I was frustrated spending more time formatting
reports than actually analyzing data. Every BI tool I tried required
a PhD in their configuration. So I built DataFlow — paste your SQL,
get a dashboard.

It auto-detects chart types, handles large datasets, and exports
to PDF/PNG with one click.

We're offering 50% off the first year for PH users. Would love
your feedback — what reporting pain points do you have?
嘿,Product Hunt的朋友们!👋

DataFlow可在数秒内将原始SQL查询转换为可视化仪表盘。

作为一名数据工程师,我曾因花费大量时间格式化报告而非分析数据而感到沮丧。我尝试过的所有BI工具都需要复杂的配置,于是我开发了DataFlow——只需粘贴SQL语句,就能生成仪表盘。

它能自动识别图表类型,处理大型数据集,还能一键导出为PDF/PNG格式。

我们为Product Hunt用户提供首年5折优惠。很期待大家的反馈——你们在报告生成方面有哪些痛点?
