Basedash vs Tinylytics: at a glance
What is Basedash?
Basedash adds view-only seats so whole departments can read dashboards without editing.
Basedash has become a chat-first BI tool: the assistant builds whole dashboards, writes artifacts through MCP and runs on GPT-6.1 Sol by default. The newest release adds View-only members, who can open shared dashboards, charts, automations and chat history, use filters and drilldowns and export, but cannot edit, chat or run automations. It follows the Connector gallery, private Slack DMs and a mobile Home Screen app.
What is Tinylytics?
Tinylytics is quietly adding AI and agent integration — MCP queries from the dashboard, n8n hooks.
Tinylytics ships in weekly changelog batches rather than versioned releases, which makes individual releases hard to isolate. The recent period shows two notable additions: the ability to query site analytics through an AI assistant from within the dashboard, and n8n/agent workflow integration for analytics data. The rest is polish — better onboarding confirmations, bot filtering improvements, content monitoring refinements.

6.3ANALYTICS
Basedash adds view-only seats so whole departments can read dashboards without editing.
◆ Current state
Basedash has become a chat-first BI tool: the assistant builds whole dashboards, writes artifacts through MCP and runs on GPT-6.1 Sol by default. The newest release adds View-only members, who can open shared dashboards, charts, automations and chat history, use filters and drilldowns and export, but cannot edit, chat or run automations. It follows the Connector gallery, private Slack DMs and a mobile Home Screen app.
◆ Where it's heading
Recent releases spread Basedash's reach on two ends: more ways to get data in (connectors) and more ways for people to consume answers (Slack, mobile, now read-only seats). View-only access widens the audience from analysts to stakeholders and clients without opening up editing or AI usage.
◆ Prediction
Expect finer-grained sharing and permission controls to follow view-only seats, alongside more connectors in the gallery. The entries don't show whether view-only members are priced differently.
Tinylytics
5.0ANALYTICS
Tinylytics is quietly adding AI and agent integration — MCP queries from the dashboard, n8n hooks.
◆ Current state
Tinylytics ships in weekly changelog batches rather than versioned releases, which makes individual releases hard to isolate. The recent period shows two notable additions: the ability to query site analytics through an AI assistant from within the dashboard, and n8n/agent workflow integration for analytics data. The rest is polish — better onboarding confirmations, bot filtering improvements, content monitoring refinements.
◆ Where it's heading
The product is expanding from a minimalist analytics tool into one that pipes data into AI and automation workflows. Passkeys, Ultra AI portfolio insights, and the MCP-accessible dashboard point toward a vision where analytics data is queryable by agents, not just humans reading a chart.
◆ Prediction
Structured API or webhook support that lets automation platforms pull analytics data on demand — rather than periodic exports — would be the natural completion of the n8n and agent integration work.
