I need to be able to refine sources by hardcoded sources. I am getting failure in a column yet I know multiple bonafide information sources. In the sources tab I would expect to see the sources broken down by schema name. For example, I have a schema element called "Recent News". I it was possible for me to do so, I would define pr newswire and business newswire as a source. But instead the agents are failing here.


Your affordance for sources is misleading and confusing. When I am viewing a dataset post schema creation then this link affordance makes me think that it's related to the number of results found in a cell where multiple results are expected. But when I'm adjusting the research plan, I do care about the sources. Suggestion is to introduce a "Review Mode" where the link affordance corresponds to data source, else it refers to number of links per cell. This will solve your problem and make it be less confusing. Currently, this as well as many other things make me just want to download to csv and edit in google sheets. it's too frustrating to work with.


Your column sorting only looks at the first character and if the cell value is a number it's all wrong because numbers are converted from text strings. For example, I have a column title "number of employees". What happens is that this column is not sortable numerically. What should happen is that I should be able to sort numerical data from greatest to least or vice versa


The agents need to be able to work on a cellular level. Then you can add N number of enrichments per subscription tier.


and it's annoying that i have to rerun the entire dataset task just for adding a single column


If I were you guys I would prioritize adding a multi-user instance otherwise you get people who don't want to make their dataset public, they will download and leave the platform. From a acquisition strategy perspective you want people to become more familiar with being on your site vs exporting to their favorite editor. You probably have it on your roadmap but a main competitor for you in gonna be clay. People will export from your tool and import into clay.


When there are more than one link in a cell result you can easily fix the formatting. Just add this one class https://imgur.com/a/SoRKnZQ

You can fix your column headers like this so they don't break: https://imgur.com/a/EV4piJ0


Thanks, fixed!


VC will want this tool for creating a competitive landscape. Startups should do it to but it will replace hundreds of hours of junior analyst time. For better or worse. THis is going to be much better research than what a junior analyst could do. Or maybe jr analyst will pay for it.


Because there is no budget nor culture for training juniors internally. The culture (top-down) is rewarding short-term capital efficiency without regard to longevity and succession.


Who else wants the Plumbus?
