Comment on Launch HN: Livedocs (YC W22) – Live data in your documents, without code

Comments

This is a really good idea! The power of editable documents combined with custom blocks that react to live data.

Quick question: how do you plan to compete with existing platforms like Notion and Coda? For them, this could be just another block element type that they could ship with minimal effort?

Thanks! We're trying to build a more complete data solution. The pre-built block types are the first step, which let you setup basic metrics. We want to build connectors with custom APIs, databases, and even data warehouses, and then let teams invite data engineers to setup metrics for non-technical users in their team to use.
