Reviewer scorecard
“Query Parquet files, CSVs, and Postgres directly with SQL. No ETL needed. The SQLite of analytics.”
“The query builder is powerful and the SDK integration is clean. Better for product analytics than Google Analytics.”
“Most analytics don't need a data warehouse. DuckDB on your laptop handles billions of rows faster than Snowflake.”
“The free tier with 20M events is generous. Best pure product analytics tool if you don't need session replay.”
“The shift from cloud warehouses to local-first analytics is real. DuckDB is leading that revolution.”
“Not relevant for creative work. It's a product analytics tool for PMs and engineers.”
