Introduction

Sopho is an open source Business Intelligence (BI) platform rethought from scratch to be simple, performant, secure and AI-native.

What is Sopho?

Sopho is a single platform for data analytics, business intelligence, dashboards, notebooks, and data visualizations. It is built for anyone (solopreneurs, CXOs, software developers, data analysts, and enterprises) who wants to explore data, write SQL, create charts, build dashboards, and set up alerts. It is designed to be used by a one-man team with its AI-native features and also by a team of people with its security and collaborative features. Sopho is fully open source.

Features

Beautiful

Sopho is designed to be beautiful and intuitive. Sopho strives to be the best quality product in its category. Deeply inspired by Conversations on Quality.

Integrated Notebook and Dashboard

You no longer have to move between different SQL queries, charts, and dashboards open in different browser tabs to explore data and to create your dashboards. Sopho simplifies this by putting everything in one place using a new abstraction called Canvas, preventing the loss of context and the endless switching.

Shortcuts

Shortcuts are a first-class citizen in the roadmap of Sopho. Currently, Sopho supports shortcuts for global search (Cmd+K), creation of various assets, and for editing cells in the notebook. Shortcuts are integrated wherever possible to save precious time.

Performant

Sopho is built using the latest technologies in the frontend and the backend world. Sopho uses Rust for the backend, React + Vite for the frontend, and PostgreSQL for data storage. Maintainability and performance are the core pillars for the choices of technologies.

AI Native (Coming Soon)

Sopho will be AI-native with features such as QnA with data assets, dashboards from prompts, deep research, and so on, with the freedom to connect with any LLM provider of your choice.

Security (Coming Soon)

Sopho will be secure by design even with its AI-native features. Security features such as Row Level Security (RLS), Column Level Security (CLS), PII Masking, User and Permission Management and Audit Log will be built on top of a performant authentication and authorization scaffold.
