Analytics & Optimization

Analytics dashboards and data visualisation for decision makers

Grapefruit builds analytics dashboards that bring your most important metrics from web analytics, CRM, ad platforms, e-commerce and operational systems into one live, easy-to-read view. We start from the decisions each team makes, design dashboards for marketers, sales and executives, and connect them to trusted data sources, as in the forecasting dashboards we built for Ogre.ai.

AI in this service

How AI changes analytics & dashboards at Grapefruit

Dashboards are becoming conversational: instead of hunting through charts, managers ask a question in natural language and get an answer with the source data. We add AI summaries, anomaly alerts and forecasting where your data supports them, building on the data-heavy dashboards we designed and built for Ogre.ai's AI energy forecasting platform.

Analytics & Dashboards: frequently asked questions

Cannot find your question? Ask a senior specialist directly.

Why build custom dashboards instead of using standard reports?

Standard reports show what each tool can measure, not what your team needs to decide. Custom dashboards combine sources, use your definitions and show only the metrics that matter for each audience, so people act on them instead of exporting data to spreadsheets.

Which data sources can you connect?

Web analytics such as GA4, CRM systems such as HubSpot, advertising platforms, e-commerce platforms, databases, spreadsheets and operational systems through APIs. Data quality is checked during setup, because a dashboard is only as trustworthy as its sources.

Which tools do you build dashboards in?

Looker Studio for marketing and web analytics, business intelligence tools such as Power BI when your organisation already uses them, and custom web dashboards when data must be embedded in a product or shown to customers, as in the Ogre.ai platform.

Do dashboards update in real time?

They update as often as the sources allow: live for connected systems, hourly or daily for sources that export in batches. We document refresh times on the dashboard so nobody makes decisions on data they believe is newer than it is.

Can dashboards be tailored for different teams?

Yes. Typically an executive view with a few headline KPIs, and detailed views for marketing, sales or operations with filters and drill-downs. Access permissions follow your roles and data protection rules.
