Basedash Managed Analytics Retainer (7-10 days)
A productized managed analytics offer that turns Basedash's natural language querying, semantic layer, and 750+ connectors into a recurring client reporting retainer, delivered in 7 to 10 days.
- Client has at least one live data source (PostgreSQL, MySQL, Snowflake, BigQuery, HubSpot, or Salesforce) with maintainable pipelines
- A named client owner for metric definitions and dashboard sign-off
- Basedash Startup plan at $1000 USD per month provisioned with up to 25 user seats
- Access credentials for each source system, scoped read-only where possible
- Agreed reporting cadence and the 3 to 5 business questions the dashboards must answer
- 1.Inventory client data sources and confirm each one is on Basedash's 750+ connector list
- 2.Test connectivity to the primary warehouse (PostgreSQL, Snowflake, or BigQuery) from a Basedash workspace
- 3.Flag any source without a maintainable pipeline and scope it out of phase one
- 1.Connect up to 5 sources inside Basedash, including SaaS tools such as HubSpot or Salesforce
- 2.Map raw tables and objects to the client's reporting entities
- 3.Document join keys and known data quality gaps in a shared setup log
- 1.Draft reusable SQL metric definitions for the client's core KPIs
- 2.Load those definitions into Basedash's semantic layer so every report reads the same number
- 3.Review metric logic with the client owner and lock definitions before dashboard build
- 1.Build the first executive dashboard using Basedash natural language queries, then refine the generated charts
- 2.Add a second dashboard for the operational team with drill-down views
- 3.Verify each chart pulls from the governed semantic layer rather than ad hoc SQL
- 1.Configure Basedash Automations for scheduled report delivery to client stakeholders
- 2.Turn on daily insights so the client receives AI-generated summaries between reviews
- 3.Set alert thresholds on the two metrics the client watches most closely
- 1.Run a natural language querying training session with the client team inside the Basedash workspace
- 2.Publish a short query cookbook of the 10 prompts that answer their recurring questions
- 3.Confirm seat allocation stays within the Startup plan's 25-user ceiling
- 1.Prepare the embed handoff: identify which dashboards go into the client product and confirm embedding is available on the Enterprise tier
- 2.Document the semantic layer maintenance routine the agency will run each month
- 3.Deliver the dashboard pack and agree the monthly retainer review date
The Startup plan runs $1000 USD per month and covers up to 25 users, so a single $10,000 USD setup engagement plus a monthly retainer clears the platform cost inside the first billing cycle. Each additional client reuses the same semantic layer patterns, which cuts build hours on the second and third engagements and lifts gross margin on the retainer.
- Basedash workspace with up to 5 connected sources and a governed semantic layer of client KPI definitions
- Three client dashboards (executive, operational, and one ad hoc view) built from natural language queries
- Automation schedule and daily insights digest configured for stakeholder delivery
- Natural language query cookbook with the 10 prompts mapped to recurring client questions
- Embed readiness memo stating which dashboards require the Enterprise tier and what the sales quote must cover
The client team can answer its top three reporting questions through Basedash natural language queries without agency help, and every dashboard number traces back to a semantic layer metric the client signed off on.
