Dashboards · Trust the numbers
Every number on the board comes from your data.
Live example
Built from one sentence. Every figure computed.
A real Mammoth dashboard, live on this page. Click a bar or a slice to filter the whole board: every card, chart and total recomputes from the data.
Sample data for a fictional coffee chain. Made from one sentence: “revenue, gross margin %, orders and units by region, store, channel, category and month, with key insights”. Gross margin is total margin divided by total revenue, not an average of per-order percentages.

The AI designs. The database computes.
Three things happen between your question and a figure on the screen, and none of them lets a language model invent a value.
The AI never writes a number
The AI picks fields and designs; every number is computed by a database query compiled from those choices.
No made-up columns
Every field the AI names is checked against your real columns, and a name that doesn't exist is dropped and reported.
Words checked against the numbers
Generated summary lines are checked against computed facts, and a line citing a figure the data doesn't contain is dropped.
Checks before anything is shown
What Mammoth refuses to put on a board
A dashboard that looks right and is wrong is worse than no dashboard. These run on every board, whoever builds it.
Chart titles match what they plot
If a chart's title names a measure the chart doesn't draw, the title is replaced rather than shipped.
Refusals based on your data
Q&A declines a question only when it can't be answered from your fields, not because of how it was worded.
Comparison pages without holes
A side-by-side comparison page only carries charts that can be drawn side by side; others are declined, or hidden and never deleted.
A computed head-to-head
A comparison opens on two real subjects and states the gap in computed numbers; a gap under 2% is called close.
Balances are not added up over time
Balances like cash, headcount or inventory on a snapshot table show the latest period instead of being summed across months.
Sample data is labelled
A board on sample data says so in a ribbon or chip, and boards on sample data can't be published.
Check it yourself
Every figure can be traced back to its rows
You don't have to take the board's word for anything.
How this was made
A chart's menu shows which columns it uses and how, the filters on it, and for editors the exact SQL.
The rows add up to the number
When you open the rows behind a number, their count and total equal the number you clicked.
Drilled detail adds up
When you drill into a mark, the groups underneath sum to the value you clicked.
Assumptions in one place
Editors see the judgement calls behind a board in one place, such as an assumed currency, a total inflated by a join, or charts that couldn't be built.
Limits
Limits worth knowing
Better to know before you choose than after.
- Read the commentary before it goes out
- The check confirms that a figure a sentence cites exists in the computed results, not that the sentence attaches it to the right thing, so read generated commentary before it goes out. Text blocks carry no data, so they can never hold a computed figure.
- Receipts don't cover every tile yet
- Shown on added charts and most generated base charts; some combined base charts have none. SQL is editor-only and hidden while previewing as another viewer. It does not report row counts used or dropped.
- Rows behind a number: up to 500, signed in
- Up to 500 rows, for signed-in readers, within their row-level access. Contact-like columns are left out. The author can turn it off for a chart.
- Q&A won't forecast or advise
- No medians, forecasts or regressions in Q&A answers, and no investment-style advice.
- A published board can lag a moment
- A published board can briefly show the previous version after an edit or new data.
- The AI can pick a measure you didn't mean
- An average where you wanted a total is still computed correctly from your data, and still the wrong number for your question. The receipt shows what each chart computes, so review a board before you share it and ask in plain words to change it.
- Clean data is the pipeline's job
- The board shows what the data says. Fixing the data happens in the data engine underneath, as recorded steps that re-run on new data.

Questions people ask first
Can the AI make up a number?
So is every board right?
Can I see where a number came from?
What happens if my data is wrong?
What if a refresh fails?
