Hey PH community! Today, we’re launching DGi after months of hunkering down and pair programming with my CTO. Our journey over the past seven years has been full of ups and downs: we scaled a martech company to around 160 people, but when COVID hit, we couldn’t fully bounce back. Our team dissolved, and only my CTO stayed on to keep searching for product-market fit with almost no resources. Despite it all, we built a pretty cool data workflow product used by several Fortune 500 companies. It felt too cumbersome and time consuming—but it made us profitable. We took that lesson and poured our learnings into our next big bet. Rather than seeing the past as failure, we saw it as proof that every struggle, every pivot, and every lesson would lead us here, stronger than ever. What is DGi? Simply put, DGi is an AI agent specialized in data that builds and it is entirely built by AI. It isn’t locked into any fixed front or back end. At its core, it embodies “visual empathy”: we give you a sleek interface for adding credentials, so you’re not wrangling config files. We let you interact visually, not just via chat. And, of course, we deliver dashboards that are both appealing and easy to navigate. We built DGi using Next.js and Shadcn components because we admire Guillermo’s (Founder of Vercel) philosophy and wanted to bring that same level of tasteful design into the data space. In a nutshell with DGi you can: Connect to your data or upload files Create dashboards or ask questions about your data Run code Schedule tasks to orchestrate (just like Airflow) In essence we are a combination between ChatGPT, v0 and Airflow. More on DGi at www.dgintel.ai What’s next? We believe data exploration should be AI-based from the start. Eventually, tools like Excel and Power BI may fade away if a single product can handle everything—uploading a CSV, connecting a database, creating dashboards, asking questions, and automating workflows. That’s our dream, and DGi is the first step toward making it real. We hope you love it as much as we do. You can try it now, for free. Plus here’s our commitment, if you try it out and you find a bug or want a feature we don’t have, we will fix it or implement it right away. We know there’s many things to improve. For example we want to update users while DGi is “Thinking”. We will bring streaming very soon. Also, share what you built with the hashtag #dgi and tag us @datagran on X by April 15 for a chance to win $1,000. The most impressive implementation takes it. Finally we’ve raised more than $5m thus far but we are opening a community round on Wefunder to give anyone the chance to invest in the future of data https://wefunder.com/datagran
