There is a new approach of using static site generators to make BI pages feel instantly responsive.

- Evidence.dev (https://evidence.dev/) - Observable Framework (https://observablehq.com/framework/)

I have found that both the speed and the frontend control either of these tools gives you is pretty good (with Evidence looking better out-of-the-box just in my personal opinion).

The main problem I always had with the embedded versions of Tableau, Looker, etc. is that they felt super canned (it was obvious it was a poorly/"lightly" white labeled solution -- when you see an embedded Tableau dashboard, you _know_ it is Tableau, etc) and they were slow.

PS -- I would add that the "headless" version of the above tools that I have seen is https://cube.dev/

What do you think of a solution where it's headless (i.e bring your own charts / components) but with a no-code builder that gives you the benefits of an off-the-shelf tool to manage and update easily? (that's what we're building at embeddable.com)

It sounds like an interesting product but not a fit for us:

- We actually don't want no-code. We want configuration based (or something else that can fit into version control). - We want very nice, very customizable charts, but don't want to bring our own (our team is Python/SQL and data based; no one writes Javascript)
