Who each tool is for
Bricks
Strong ChoiceBest for: Consultants delivering executive reporting from uploaded datasets.
Why pick it: Upload a spreadsheet, get a polished dashboard in minutes. The AI generates narrative commentary alongside charts — ready for a client deck, not just data.
Watch for: No live data connections. If you need dashboards that refresh automatically from live sources, use Looker Studio or Databox instead.
Loom
Strong ChoiceBest for: Consultants onboarding clients, explaining deliverables, or replacing status update meetings.
Why pick it: A 3-minute Loom replaces a 30-minute meeting. View tracking shows you which clients watched and which need a nudge.
Watch for: If your clients prefer live interaction for everything, async video adds friction instead of removing it.
