Bricks
What it is
Bricks is a web-based AI data analyst that turns uploaded data into dashboards and reports. It can generate charts, KPIs, insights, and tables from CSV, Excel, and PDF data. Its AI spreadsheet tools assist with calculations, lookups, data cleaning, formatting, and analysis through natural-language requests. Users can refine dashboards with AI prompts or manual controls, then share them by link, present them in Bricks, or export them. Uploads can include CSV, XLSX, PDF, and PNG files; Bricks can also import data from Google Sheets or databases. Advanced connectors are included in Pro. Bricks describes its intended use as small to medium-sized everyday datasets, including spreadsheet, CRM, sales, marketing, financial, survey, and operational data. The free plan includes 20 AI messages per month and supports up to three people. Premium costs $17.50 per user per month with annual billing. Pro costs $70 per user per month with annual billing. When the monthly AI message allowance is reached, AI features pause until messages reset or the user upgrades, while manual editing and other features remain available.
