What is Rill? We're a highly-opinionated BI platform that aims to be:
- conversation-fast – we make an un-dashboard that people will actually use, because it’s designed from the ground-up with the expectation that all inquires should run in less than 500ms. We leverage new OLAP engines in ways that enable us to create whole new classes of interactions not previously seen in analytics – and whole new design paradigms.- code-driven – making a dashboard should follow modern software development practices & CI/CD workflows. We want to bring BI tools into the same workflow loved by developers in other parts of the industry.- beyond easy to get started – go from data lake to dashboard in 5 minutes or less. Effortless to make, effortless to deploy.
