Why TypeScript for this
The AI layer is genuinely useful here: a director can ask the follow-up question rather than filing a request and waiting three days for an analyst.
TypeScript is strongest at one language across client and server, with types catching integration errors at build time. For bi dashboards & analytics that matters because the failure modes of this kind of system tend to cluster exactly there.
The honest trade-off: the ML ecosystem is in Python, so heavy model work lives there. We say that up front because a stack chosen for fashion rather than fit becomes someone's migration project two years later. Every engagement opens with a measurement: the cycle time, the cost per transaction, or the error rate we are being asked to move.
You own the code, the models where they are open-weight, and the documentation to run it without us.

We are not a reseller for TypeScript and hold no commission on this choice. Where a different option fits your workload better, the recommendation will say so. That is the entire value of asking us.
What is included
- Metric definitions agreed and documented once
- A semantic layer so numbers cannot diverge by report
- Dashboards designed for decisions, not for decoration
- Scheduled distribution to the people who need it
- Natural-language follow-up questions over the same data
- Usage tracking so unused dashboards get retired
Questions
Which BI tool do you use?
Power BI, Metabase, Superset or a custom build, chosen on your licensing, team skills and how much customisation you need. We are not tied to one vendor.
Why do our reports disagree?
Almost always because the same metric is defined differently in different places. A semantic layer with one agreed definition fixes it structurally rather than report by report.
Can non-technical staff ask their own questions?
Yes, natural-language querying over the governed semantic layer, so answers stay consistent with the dashboards.
Alternatives for bi dashboards & analytics
Same capability, different stack. Each page states its own trade-off.
