This seems quite similar to RawGraphs: https://rawgraphs.io/

Both seem to provide a similar interface for dragging in a CSV file and constructing a chart, but RawGraphs is open-source, and can be used in the browser without installing anything (or the code can be downloaded and served locally).

The main advantage of Daigo over RawGraphs seems to be that it supports publishing multiple charts as a dashboard. However, in the examples it looks like there is no cross-linking or coordination between charts, which is a limitation


Solid design, what's the business model? Is this just for fun?


Thanks! Currently it is free to use. More advanced features are being developed and some features will be available to paid customers only. With that said, my idea is to make it a non-SaaS product so that people can buy a perpetual license and use it whenever they want. In future, it largely depends on what kind of tool it will become. I imagine that it could become either a data exploration tool or a data knowledge sharing tool, and different business models may fit in.
