The shape of it
1
Connect a source
Anything that speaks MCP. Five public data sources are hosted for you and need no setup, and your own
servers connect over OAuth where they require it. See Connections.
2
Ask in chat
Describe the chart. The agent calls your sources, shapes the data, and shows you a preview in the
conversation before anything is saved. See Chat.
3
Add it to a dashboard
The preview becomes a widget. From there it refreshes on its own schedule, and you can ask for it to
be moved, resized or restyled at any point. See Dashboards.
Two ways in
Vistazo is an MCP client, and it is also an MCP server. The same operations the in-app chat performs are available to your own agent.Use the app
Sign in, look at your sources, build your first dashboard.
Drive it from an agent
Connect Claude Code, Cursor, Codex or any MCP client and build dashboards from your editor.
Things worth knowing early
- You read in the app and build by asking. The canvas has no drag handles. Layout, styling and wiring are all set through the agent, which is also why they survive a rebuild.
- Viewing is free and unlimited. No per-viewer charges, and no seat needed to read a dashboard or open a share link.
- The dashboard owns the chart. Once you add a preview, you edit it on the dashboard rather than re-drafting it in chat. The conversation keeps showing that widget live, so dashboard changes appear in the thread, but nothing flows the other way.
- Refreshes are cheap. A scheduled refresh re-runs the stored transform with no model call, which is why they are not reserved for paid plans. The model returns only when a source changes shape and the transform needs repairing.
- Parameters are authored, not remembered. A filter you change while reading is yours and is never written back for everyone else. See Parameters.
