How it works
Connect, query, manipulate, and share.
Connect your data sources, query them with SQL, and manipulate results with Python.
Then, use query results to create presentable notebooks, dashboards, or data apps.
- Connect your data source
Connect Briefer to data sources like Postgres, BigQuery, Redshift, or MySQL.
- Run queries
Run SQL queries straight from your Briefer documents.
- Execute Python
Run Python code using your query results as dataframes.
- Share your results
Use your notebook's components to publish reports, dashboards, or data apps.
SQL support
Secure queries with zero boilerplate
You can write SQL directly in Briefer. We'll automatically turn your query's results into dataframes that you can use in Python blocks.
Python support
Python code blocks with an AI assistant
Briefer comes with hundreds of pre-installed libraries and a built-in AI assistant that helps you write code faster.
- Use AI to write code and fix errors.
- Instead of writing code, just describe what you want to do. If you make a mistake, the AI will fix it for you.
- Use query results as dataframes.
- Briefer automatically converts query results into dataframes that you can use in Python blocks.
- Schedule executions.
- Schedule your Python blocks to run on a recurring schedule. Ideal for writebacks or training and monitoring ML models.
- Show what matters.
- Hide all the data wrangling and show only the results that matter.
Turn notebooks into Python-powered dashboards
No more screenshots. Just dashboards.
Forget taking screenshots, pasting them somewhere else, and having data go stale. In Briefer you can turn your notebooks into dashboards and data apps.
- Dashboard-mode or report-mode.
- Choose between publishing your notebook as a dashboard or a traditional report.
- Hide irrelevant code.
- Add multiple blocks to fetch, transform, and plot data. Then, choose which blocks to publish and which to hide.
- Add filters and inputs.
- Use dropdowns, text fields, and date inputs to create interactive dashboards and apps.
- Email and slack notifications.
- Schedule your notebooks to run and send a PDF report to your email or Slack.
- Generate snapshots.
- We'll take a snapshot of your notebook every time it runs. That way, you can see how your data evolved over time.
- Create public links.
- Create a public link to share your reports and dashboards with anyone, like a client or a colleague.
Build data apps
Use inputs, dropdowns, sliders, and date selectors to create interactive pages that your team can use to explore data and make decisions.
- Model prototyping
- Customer segmentation
- Churn prediction
- Demand forecasting
- Retention analysis
- Revenue attribution
Collaborate with your team in real-time
Briefer gets your team on the same page (literally).
- Multiplayer editing
- See who's editing which part of the document and collaborate in real time.
- Comments
- Add comments, raise issues, and tag your teammates in any part of the document.
- Presentation mode
- Hide code from non-technical stakeholders and present your findings in a clean, easy-to-read format.
- Granular permissions
- Control who can view or edit which workspace, and the data sources in each.
