What it does
Bricks is positioned as an AI data analyst for people who need dashboards and reports without a BI team. You upload a file or connect a data source, describe what you want, and it produces dashboards, reports, charts and graphs, spreadsheet edits and transformations, slide decks, or org charts. Data can come from CSV and Excel files or from connectors. The connector list includes Google Sheets, Excel in OneDrive, Notion, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Airtable, Stripe, QuickBooks, Google Analytics and many more, with a number of others marked as coming up. Dashboards can be adjusted by dragging blocks or with natural-language instructions. The page also describes one-click refresh with new data while keeping the layout, click-to-filter interactivity, reusable templates and ready-made visual themes. It says data is encrypted and never used for AI training. The sign-up form says it is free to start with no credit card required, but plan prices are not shown on the page.
