Custom Tableau Extensions Development
Transform Tableau dashboards into powerful business tools—custom extensions with GenAI, automation, and backend intelligence.
Supercharge Your Dashboards
Move beyond standard visualizations. We co-build powerful, bespoke Tableau Extensions that integrate seamlessly with your dashboards to unlock new functionality, automate analysis, and harness the power of GenAI.
What's Possible?
A Tableau Extension is more than just a front-end widget; its true power comes from the backend API that does the heavy lifting. We work with your team to build a robust, scalable API that connects your Tableau dashboard to any service you need—from executing complex queries in data warehouses to integrating GenAI models for instant insights, triggering automated actions, and enforcing business logic too complex for Tableau alone.
Whether you need GenAI-powered summaries generated from selected data, custom calculators for what-if analysis, backend data actions to build audience segments, automated documentation generation, fully-branded embedded analytics portals, or data write-back capabilities, we build the custom solution that transforms your dashboards into powerful business tools.
Our approach empowers your team by building the solution together, with all code in a shared Git repository for full ownership and transparency.
Key Features
