About Papercrane
Every analytics vendor is bolting an AI copilot onto their dashboards. Power BI has one. Tableau has one. They all work the same way: the human drives the old tool, and the AI sits in a sidebar making suggestions. I took the agent you already use and built the BI tool around it. papercrane-cli is a command line tool that gives Claude Code everything it needs to turn a business question into a live dashboard: authenticated access to your data, a real dashboard workspace, and a path to a link you can send to anyone.
