Parabola is both more end-user friendly (particularly for non-technical users) and also designed to be used for more ad-hoc tasks. You could think of it like the combination of an ETL tool and a spreadsheet. Another way of looking at it would be a scripting language for non engineers.
Hi, just discovered this got posted. I'm the Co-Founder and CEO of Parabola.
We created Parabola with the goal of enabling everyone to easily work with their data without needing technical skills. It makes data easy to import and manipulate, eliminates the need for complex formulas or python scripts, and everything you build is automatically updated whenever new data comes in.
-Easy, drag-and-drop interface that handles the most complex and frustrating tasks for you.
-Connect to live data, clean/merge data sets, perform a variety of data transformations, and visualize the results.
-Package your analysis into engaging dashboards for sharing and collaborating with just a few clicks.
Our early customers use Parabola for everything from cleaning lead data to creating live-updating analytics dashboards. We’d love for you to try it and let us know what you think.
Also FYI, because today is Giving Tuesday, we're running a promo where 50% of your first month’s payment will go to Jumpstart (https://jstart.org). Jumpstart is a fantastic, national nonprofit focused on improving critical language and literacy skills among children in low-income neighborhoods. Self-empowerment and education are at the core of what we believe in at Parabola, so we’re excited to support them.
This looks similar to Dataiku's Data Science Studio. But it's much less expensive...I love Dataiku but there's no way I can afford their products. I wonder what the feature parity is like.
This looks really great, well done. I used to use EasyMorph[1] for similar tasks but your interface looks a bit easier to use. This could replace some of the work I currently do in pandas.
Thanks for the link, have been looking for something like this to quickly test out some ideas. I appreciate that I don't need a credit card to see if it will work or not.
