I built an AI Data Analyst
I built an AI Data Analyst — upload a CSV, get charts + chat with your data
I kept watching non-technical people stare at spreadsheets they couldn't make sense of. The answers were in the data, but getting them meant knowing Excel formulas or Python. So I built a tool that does it automatically: upload any CSV, get instant charts (line, pie, box), and ask questions in plain English like "what's my best month?"
Honest status: freshly launched, no users or sales yet. It works and it's deployed — now I'm figuring out the harder part, getting it in front of people who need it. If you've cracked distribution for a tool like this, I'd love to hear how. And if you try it, tell me what's missing — I'm all ears.
It's really great idea. But one thing? have you researched about why people should pay for this?
i post about this on reddit and i got some good reviews but after completing this i posted this again but got no response and not a single user yet Don't know what to do i think i lost
Yes, same goes to me also.
I've created applaunch ( https://applaunch.teamzlab.com ) I was thinked people should need it. Given them email, tried on some social media. They've got interested. They come to my site. but no one create account. accept 1 person.
but he has not taken any action ( like create company, service or product )
Because of credit card required.
So! now I've changed my decision. I'll work only which product already earned 1M+ . If they have customer base, it's high chance for me also.
May you can try that also.
I'd be careful treating this as a distribution problem too early.
The harder question may be whether the people uploading the CSV are actually the people most likely to pay for the outcome.
Those sound similar, but they tend to lead to very different decisions about validation, feedback, and growth.
I wouldn't make that call casually in a thread.
That's a really sharp distinction, thank you — I think you've caught something I was glossing over. I'd been treating "user" and "buyer" as the same person, but you're right that the one uploading the CSV (maybe an analyst or employee) probably isn't the one who'd pull out a card — that's likely their manager who just wants the answer, not the process.
That reframes what I should be validating. Instead of "how do I get more people to try it," the better question might be "who actually feels the pain of not having these answers, and is that the same person clicking upload?"
Genuinely curious how you'd approach figuring that out — do you start by just talking to a few likely buyers before touching the product again, or look at who in an org actually owns that problem?
Possibly, but that's exactly why I stopped short earlier.
I don't think the interesting part is whether you start with users or buyers.
I think there's a more important decision sitting underneath that question.
I wouldn't try to unpack that properly in a thread.
If you're curious, drop your email and I'll send over the tighter version.
