Panel verdict
The AI panel rates Luzmo 3/5, the mean of 6 judges. Luzmo, an embedded analytics platform from Luzmo NV in Belgium, scores highest where it pitches itself: sharing and embedding at 8-9, with server-side embed tokens applying per-viewer row-level filters to dashboards, the API and AI answers, multi-tenant isolation from one shared database to separate tenant databases, and white-label styling with React, Vue and Angular SDKs. how scores are made

The Skeptic

Weighted verdict

Has seen "connect any data source" on a tool with eight connectors and a CSV upload, "self-service" that ends with every department defining revenue its own way, "free viewers" that need a paid licence to open a shared link, and "AI insights" that never show the query. Asks where the extracts are stored, whether dashboards and definitions can be exported in a format another tool reads — and what leaving would cost.

Same scores as the panel view — this lens weights them the way this judge cares.

Data sources, connectors & refresh

How this is scored

Which data the product can reach and how it stays current: native connectors to databases and warehouses (PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQL Server, BigQuery, Snowflake), to business applications (accounting, ERP, CRM, shop, help desk, ad platforms) and to files and spreadsheets (Excel, CSV, Google Sheets), live queries versus imported extracts, scheduled and incremental refresh with its minimum interval, joining data from several sources, light data preparation, access to databases behind a firewall (gateway, SSH tunnel, IP allow-list), and a generic REST or custom connector for what is not listed.

0 — Not a reporting product, or data can only be typed or pasted in by hand.

3 — Spreadsheet and file uploads plus a handful of named connectors; refresh schedules, live queries and blending sources are basic or not described.

5 — A published connector list covering the common databases, warehouses, spreadsheets and several named business applications, scheduled refresh with its interval stated, live queries or extracts at the customer's choice, data from two sources combined in one report, and a documented way to reach a database behind a firewall.

8 — Hundreds of maintained connectors or a full SQL layer over every major warehouse, incremental refresh and caching explained, a built-in data preparation or modelling step, a gateway or agent for on-premise sources, a generic REST or custom connector SDK, and connector limits (rows, API calls, history) stated per plan.

10 — Connectivity an organisation can standardise on: every source reachable live or by extract with the trade-offs documented, refresh down to minutes with lineage from report back to source, source changes detected and reported, and connector behaviour, quotas and failure handling published.

Report an error

The Skeptic

Live connectors to PostgreSQL, MySQL and SQL Server are documented, a named plugin set reaches Athena, BigQuery, Clickhouse, Databricks, Oracle and Snowflake, local file upload and Google Drive cover files, and a generic REST plugin plus API push and a Warp acceleration layer (100 million synced rows monthly, stated overage rate) cover the rest. But we found no public information on a gateway, SSH tunnel or allow-list for databases behind a firewall, no refresh interval for synced data, and no connectors to business applications such as accounting, ERP or CRM appear on the captured pages. 4 10 11 17 14 5 2

Dashboards, charts & interactivity

How this is scored

What can be built and how readers use it: the range of chart types, tables and pivot tables, maps, KPI tiles with targets and comparisons, dashboard layout, filters and date controls that apply across a dashboard, drill-down and drill-through, cross-filtering by clicking a chart, templates for common sources, mobile and TV display, theming to the company's design, number formatting and localisation (decimal comma, currencies, German date formats), and accessibility of the result.

0 — No charts or dashboards; the product only stores or moves data.

3 — Standard bar, line and pie charts and a table on a dashboard; filters, drill-down and mobile display are basic or not described.

5 — A broad chart library with pivot tables, maps and KPI tiles with comparison to a previous period or target, dashboard-wide filters and date ranges, drill-down, templates for common sources, a mobile view, and number and date formats localised.

8 — Cross-filtering and drill-through between dashboards, custom visuals or a chart SDK, conditional formatting and annotations, dashboards themed to a brand, TV and presentation modes, pixel-exact or paginated reports for print, and accessibility of charts documented.

10 — Dashboards that a whole organisation reads daily: every interaction (filter, drill, cross-filter, parameter) available to readers without editor rights, performance on large data stated, accessibility conformance (WCAG) published, and every chart reproducible from a documented query.

Report an error

The Skeptic

Forty-plus chart types with custom charts and a code-first SDK, drill-down, cross-chart filtering and an embeddable filter component with nested AND/OR groups are all documented, alongside white-label themes, CSS injection, multilingual dashboards, multi-timezone and multi-currency handling, and layouts optimised for different devices. We found no public information on pivot tables, maps, KPI tiles with targets, or accessibility conformance, so we credit strong interactivity but not the full chart range. 2 12 13 6 11 15

Self-service analysis & shared metrics

How this is scored

Whether people outside the data team can answer their own questions and whether everyone gets the same answer: a visual query builder, a SQL editor for analysts, calculated fields and formulas, a semantic layer or data model where metrics such as revenue or churn are defined once and reused, metric definitions under version control (Git, dbt integration), questions in natural language with the generated query shown, forecasting and anomaly detection with the method stated, and notebooks or Python for deeper analysis.

0 — Dashboards can only be viewed; no one can ask a new question of the data.

3 — Charts are configured from a field list and simple calculated fields; shared metric definitions, SQL and a query builder are basic or not described.

5 — A visual query builder for business users and a SQL editor for analysts, calculated fields and formulas, saved questions reused across dashboards, a data model or dataset layer where joins and metrics are defined once, and natural-language questions that show the query they ran.

8 — A semantic layer with governed metrics and dimensions reused across every report, definitions in code under Git version control or synced with dbt, certified or endorsed datasets, forecasting and anomaly detection with the method stated, and Python or notebook analysis beside the dashboards.

10 — Self-service that stays consistent at scale: every metric defined once and traced to every chart that uses it, changes reviewed and tested before they reach readers, AI answers grounded in the semantic layer with their limits documented, and the model exportable in an open format.

Report an error

The Skeptic

This is where I usually find the fine print, and here it is mostly absent: a semantic layer where a metric lives in exactly one place as a formula, derived column or SQL view, natural-language questions resolved through the same query engine that never writes raw SQL against the database, permissions applied identically to AI answers, and definitions creatable and maintainable programmatically. The vendor is unusually honest that trend predictions are not supported; we found no public information on Git or dbt synchronisation, certified datasets, or Python notebooks. 14 3 1 5

Sharing, scheduled reports & embedding

How this is scored

How results reach the people who need them: sharing a dashboard with colleagues and with external parties, public or password-protected links, scheduled reports by email or chat (Slack, Microsoft Teams) as PDF, image or data, threshold alerts, comments and annotations, export to PDF, PowerPoint and Excel, embedding dashboards in an intranet, a website or the company's own software product, white-label options, and per-customer data separation for embedded use.

0 — Results cannot leave the editor; no sharing, export or embedding.

3 — Dashboards shared with other users of the account and exported to PDF or CSV; scheduled reports, alerts and embedding are basic or not described.

5 — Sharing with colleagues and by link, scheduled email reports with PDF or image, alerts when a metric crosses a threshold, export to PDF and Excel, and dashboards embedded in a website or intranet with an iframe or script.

8 — Reports delivered to Slack or Microsoft Teams, comments and annotations on dashboards, signed embedding with row-level filtering per viewer, an embedding SDK for a software product with white-label styling, client or guest portals, and an embedding licence model documented.

10 — Distribution as a product: multi-tenant embedded analytics with per-customer data isolation, theming and custom domains, end-user self-service inside the host application, every delivery channel automatable through an API, and usage of shared and embedded content reported to the customer.

Report an error

The Skeptic

Scheduled PDF email exports run through a documented export API with the schedule interval in minutes, alerting, PDF/image export, commenting and private-url shares are all named, and embedding via iframe or web component with server-side tokens, per-viewer row-level filters and white-label styling is the product's core pitch, licensed on a defined monthly active user metric. We found no public information on scheduled report delivery to Slack or Microsoft Teams as such, or on usage reporting of shared and embedded content back to the customer. 16 2 6 17 8 5

Access control, administration & portability

How this is scored

What a company needs before it gives the tool to everyone, and what leaving would cost: roles and folder or workspace permissions, row-level and column-level security, single sign-on (SAML, OpenID Connect) and user provisioning (SCIM), audit logs and usage analytics, content certification and lifecycle, environments for development and production, a public REST API for administration and content, export of dashboards and definitions in a reusable format, open-source code, and a self-hosted or on-premise edition the customer runs on its own servers.

0 — A single shared login with no permissions; dashboards cannot be exported or administered.

3 — Users with view and edit rights; row-level security, single sign-on, an API and export of definitions are basic or not described.

5 — Roles and folder or workspace permissions, row-level security documented, single sign-on on at least one stated plan, an audit log, a documented REST API, and dashboards and data exportable on termination.

8 — Column-level security and data permissions inherited from the source, SAML and SCIM provisioning, usage analytics for admins, development and production environments or content promotion, dashboards and definitions as code that can be versioned and moved, and a self-hosted or on-premise edition with its own documentation.

10 — Governance and an exit that can be verified: open-source code under a named licence that runs fully self-hosted with feature parity stated, every object (data model, dashboards, permissions) exportable in a documented format another instance imports, audit logs streamed to the customer's own systems, and deletion of every copy on termination documented.

Report an error

The Skeptic

Roles, row-level security, an OpenID Connect SSO configuration with a verification flag, quarterly-audited access control, a documented REST API over every entity, version history with multi-environment publishing, and CI/CD-friendly definitions consumable from outside the product make a serious administrative surface. But we found no public information on SCIM provisioning, SAML, column-level security, admin usage analytics, or a self-hosted edition — private infrastructure and source-code escrow are sold as services — and export of dashboards on termination is not documented beyond the GDPR personal-data copy. 2 19 6 14 18 5 9

European sovereignty

How this is scored

Who the contracting entity and the parent company are, where the connected business data is queried, cached, extracted and stored, and who the subprocessors are (hosting, query engine, AI model providers, email delivery of reports, support and payment tools). Independently sourced by the sovereignty pipeline; a BI tool reads revenue, customer and employee data from many systems, so every place a copy or cache lands counts, not only the account database. A self-hosted or open-source edition the customer runs on its own European servers counts as the customer's chain, whatever the vendor's seat.

0 — Non-EU vendor and contracting entity, hosting unstated, subprocessors unnamed, and no data processing agreement offered.

3 — A privacy policy and a data processing agreement exist, but hosting location is unstated or non-EU and the subprocessors are not listed.

5 — EU hosting available and an EU contracting entity or EU representative, but parts of the chain (query engine, extracts and caches, AI features, report emails, support, payment) run through non-EU providers without a stated safeguard.

8 — EU hosting on named infrastructure, EU contracting entity, subprocessors listed with their locations, a data processing agreement published, where extracts and caches are stored stated, and security certifications (ISO 27001, SOC 2) stated — or a self-hosted edition documented that keeps every query and cache on the customer's own servers.

10 — Sovereign end to end and evidenced: European ownership, entity, hosting and every subprocessor including AI features, or a self-hosted open-source edition with no call home, data export and deletion documented, and certifications published with their scope rather than implied.

Report an error

The Skeptic

Luzmo NV is a Belgian company, EU AWS hosting is contractually available, transfers outside the EEA are governed by standard data protection clauses, ISO 27001-certified data centers and SOC 2 Type II are stated, and subprocessor lists sit on a public trust portal — a genuinely European seat. The chain still runs through the United States: user input, dataset metadata, query results and row-level hierarchy data go to OpenAI for AI answers and embeddings, the captured pages never state which region applies when a contract is silent, and we found no public information on where extracts and caches are stored, with the data processing agreement named in the contract stack but not shown published. 18 9 7 3 8 11

Pricing transparency

How this is scored

Whether a buyer can compute the real annual cost from public pages alone: price per creator or editor seat and whether viewers are free or paid, capacity or usage pricing (rows, refreshes, queries, AI credits), which features (row-level security, SSO, embedding, API, more connectors, faster refresh) sit behind a higher tier or "contact sales", the price of embedding for external users, the self-hosted edition's licence, the free tier and its limits, minimum term and setup.

0 — No public prices at all; every customer is a sales call.

3 — A starting price or a free tier exists, but how cost scales with viewers, data volume or features is unclear.

5 — Tiers are public with their seat price and main inclusions, but at least one commonly needed piece (viewer seats, row-level security, SSO, embedding, extra connectors or refresh frequency) is unpriced or "on request".

8 — Every tier priced publicly with its scaling rule (creators, viewers, capacity, rows), viewer pricing stated, add-ons and usage overage priced, embedded and self-hosted pricing stated, minimum term and VAT treatment stated.

10 — Complete price computability: annual cost derivable for a given number of creators and viewers, data volume and feature set, with every add-on, embedding, setup, support and overage fee and the cancellation and data-return terms published.

Report an error

The Skeptic

The starting point is public — "Starting from €1,995 per month" billed annually, with 500 AI conversations and 100 million synced rows included and "€0.25 / $0.25 per extra million rows", no retroactive re-tiering, VAT treatment, invoice terms and auto-renewal notice all stated — but the per-active-user rate a buyer needs to compute a real annual cost is not on the captured pages. The captured pages also give different pictures of the plan structure: the pricing page presents one plan with everything included from day one, while the terms describe four Plans with different features and usage limits. 5 8 11
