Auditable Automation
Scale reporting with AI speed, but keep the control of SQL. Every report and chart is generated from version-controlled queries that are easy to verify.
The Open Source Foundation
Taleshape is powered by Shaper, our open-source engine. This ensures you maintain full control over your infrastructure and eliminates vendor lock-in.
- ✓ SQL-First: No complex UI. Just SQL files that your team already knows how to write.
- ✓ AI-Ready: A code-based approach makes it trivial to use LLMs to generate and iterate on your dashboards securely.
- ✓ Version Controlled: Track changes with Git and collaborate via Pull Requests, just like modern development teams.

Own Your Data & Infrastructure
We provision a dedicated, isolated server for you. This means you maintain 100% data sovereignty and isolation, unlike traditional multi-tenant SaaS. You get the privacy of a custom deployment with the ease of a managed service.
No Maintenance, No Lock-in
If you ever decide to cancel, the server and the Shaper configuration are yours to keep. Since we use the same open-source Shaper engine for everyone, your dashboards will keep working perfectly—no proprietary walls or "export" headaches.
