Reviewer scorecard
“SQL + markdown = BI dashboards. Version control your analytics like code. Genius simplicity.”
“Write analytics once, send to every tool. The destination catalog and identity resolution are genuinely valuable.”
“For teams that think in SQL, Evidence produces better dashboards than clicking through Metabase or Tableau.”
“Absurdly expensive at scale. RudderStack is the open-source alternative that does the same job.”
“Code-based BI aligns analytics with engineering best practices — version control, review, testing.”
“Customer data infrastructure is essential but commoditizing. Segment's Twilio integration creates a unique data + communication platform.”
