No-Code Report Engine
Import raw tables and auto-generate business reports with saved logic
- Problem
- Business teams spend hours manually importing, copying, running VLOOKUPs, pivoting, and formatting data in Excel to produce reports. They want a solution that takes raw data and automatically outputs reports based on predefined logic, while still allowing easy customization and updates. Existing tools are either too heavy or not flexible enough for fast iteration.
- Solution
- An online tool where users upload CSV/Excel files, define calculation logic through a visual interface (formulas or simple flows), and generate reports saved as reusable templates. When the template is updated, new data imports automatically apply the latest logic.
- Users
- SMB finance, operations, and sales support staff, plus any team that regularly produces reports
- MVP
- Support CSV/Excel upload; provide drag-and-drop or formula-based column calculations; save report templates; one-click refresh to generate updated reports; export to Excel/PDF and schedule email delivery
- Revenue
- Free tier limited to 5 report generations per month; paid tier at $19–39/month adds unlimited reports, team collaboration, and scheduled delivery
- Why now
- Many SMBs still rely heavily on manual Excel workflows, while existing BI tools are steep and expensive; indie developers can fill the gap with a lightweight solution
