The interface lacks punch. While the idea of making a self-serve BI tool which can plugin the gap of bringing better understanding around data is super-cool, the execution here for sure needs work. Tried it out and it's cool for someone to hack with right now.

Early launch.

No information on pricing and social only logins?

I was interested in this product, but no thanks. At the very least if you're not ready to commit you could provide "beta" pricing for a year until you get that figured out.

There's no paid plans at the moment. Just try it out for free with full features.

Just curious, why the social logins are bad?

Because they allow third parties to build bigger ID graphs and audiences for ad targeting.

By all means, have them for convenience for those users who want to use them, but for the rest of us who know better, we’d appreciate the option to provide you our burner/one-time email addresses.

OK. That's compelling enough.

> Just curious, why the social logins are bad?

How uniquely identifying are they to be honest?

Thanks. We've just recently announced the very first version, and looking forward to any feedback and feature requests. Will do our best to make interface punchy!

because this is a tool for doing work? Nobody (or very few) HN people are going to want to do BI with their facebook accounts, if we even have FB accounts.

Cool stuff.

Just curious- how does it stack against Metabase (https://www.metabase.com/product/) for example? I used Metabase a few years back and was really blown away with the ease of use.

We're going to extend the way to login for the cloud version. Currently, email/password auth is available only in self-hosted version (docker image installed on your VPS). Feel free to reach out to me info@tablum.io, if you'd like to test it. Thanks.
