Take a look at the target market for Quantrix Modeler (Lotus Improv's spiritual successor).

It sounds like your product is in the same space (multidimensional modeling) and the market is likely an overlapping one. I looked at Quantrix Modeler some time ago as an Excel replacement for complex multiparty reporting, and was impressed by it.

Also, Gartner considers these class of products to be in the CPM space. Take a look at this for the products you'd be in competition with [1]. These are more tailored toward financial and business reporting, but the underlying foundation for all of them are similar: they all use multidimensional modeling engines.

Most of these products are so expensive, that only large companies can afford them. A middle size company has a guy who gets 30-50 Excel reports per e-mail at the end of a month and combines them to a single document manually. I hope Egeria could help in such situations...
