Choose which key insights appear on a dashboard
The Key insights section lists findings Mammoth computes from your data. Click it on the canvas in the dashboard editor to open Edit key insights, where you choose how many show and which kind come first. To turn the section on or off, use Design → Format → Sections (see Themes).

| "Pin to lock it above the line, hide to drop it — every number stays computed from your data." |
Set how many key insights show and their look
- Look: List, Tinted, Cards, Numbered or Banner. Like the KPI look, it saves immediately and applies to every page.
- How many: a − / + stepper showing how many are shown and how many are available. The minimum is 1; the maximum is the number available, so hiding insights lowers it.
Pick the focus of key insights
Focus decides which kind of insight ranks first:
| Focus | What it favours |
|---|---|
| Auto | Mammoth picks the most newsworthy mix for this data. |
| Leaders | Who's winning and by how much: ranks, gaps, dominance. |
| Momentum | What's moving: growth, spikes, month-over-month shifts. |
| Risk | What needs attention: laggards, declines, concentration. |
| Mix | A balanced spread across every kind of insight. |
Pin or hide a kind of insight
What will appear lists the insights in ranked order, with a cut line after the number you chose to show. Each row has a type tag (leader, gap, momentum, laggard, concentration, peak, quality or spread) and Pin and Hide buttons.
- Pin keeps that insight above the cut line.
- Hide drops it into the Hidden tray, where Show brings it back.
Pin and Hide act on the type tag, not one row: hiding one momentum insight hides every momentum insight, so think of it as "hide this kind of insight".
| Message | Fix |
|---|---|
| "No insights match — try a different focus, or unhide some below." | Change Focus, or show hidden insights. |
When the title band uses the board's lead insight as its subtitle, that insight appears under In the header instead of in the list. To list it again, edit the title band and clear Use the board’s lead insight. See Title band.
Some boards have insights written for them by the AI. For those, the panel shows only the count and "These insights were written for this dashboard. Choose how many appear." There is no Focus, Pin or Hide.
Limits for key insights
| Item | Limit |
|---|---|
