Most dashboards show numbers. Very few explain them.
When signups drop, someone still has to dig through the data and ask “why?”. I wanted the chart itself to do that part.
Ask chart takes a question in plain words, writes the query, picks the right chart, and leads with the answer: “Signups fell 39% after Tuesday, the day the new pricing page went live.” A follow-up like “split by plan” reshapes the same chart instead of starting over.
Details I cared about:
- The headline is a sentence, not a title. The number comes with its reason.
- Hover follows the cursor across days, so you can feel where the drop starts.
- Switching between line, bars, dots and stacked keeps the data in place, so the eye never loses the thread.
- Every answer shows the query it ran, so nothing is a black box.
