Also, can you feed live data for a constantly-updating presentation, or is it more intended for more static data that highlights a particular trend that might not be otherwise obvious?

We're a better match for making a quick data presentation with static dataset(s). Database support is coming for doing continuous updates.
We have the ability to create a database connection that would give you live data updates.

An alternate approach to using a DB connection could be creating periodic point-in-time reports rather than live updates, and having visualizations and narrative point out the interesting deltas.

2019-2020 and 2020-2021 are going to have lots of interesting deltas, I think.
