Frequently Asked Questions
What data sources can I create charts from?
Chartcastr currently supports Google Sheets as a primary data source, with BigQuery and S3 support available for teams that need warehouse-level data. Most teams start with Google Sheets since it connects in seconds via Google OAuth.
How do charts appear when embedded in Slack?
Charts are delivered as rich Slack messages with high-resolution chart images, an AI-written summary highlighting key trends and anomalies, and a thread your team can reply to for discussion. They look native to Slack — no external links required.
How often can I send charts to Slack?
You can schedule chart deliveries (called "pulses") hourly, daily, weekly, or on a fully custom schedule using cron expressions. Most teams send daily morning updates or weekly Monday reviews.
What do the AI summaries include?
Each chart pulse includes an AI-generated summary that highlights trends, anomalies, and period-over-period changes. The AI can spot things like "Revenue up 12% week-over-week, driven by the APAC region" so your team gets context, not just a picture.
Can my team ask follow-up questions about the chart?
Yes. After a chart is delivered to Slack, your team can reply in the thread and tag @Chartcastr to ask follow-up questions. The AI responds with analysis based on your data, keeping the conversation going where your team already works.
Is it free to get started?
Yes. Chartcastr has a free tier that lets you connect a data source, create charts, and embed them in Slack. No credit card required. Setup takes about 2 minutes.
