Fast response. I can upload Excel/csv and iterate under 10 seconds from question to result. Doing same thing in Claude with 10x less data takes 5 minutes.

I hear you on fast responses. One of the frustrations I've had using BI / data tools in the past was not being able to get local performance... which led to me exporting data to spreadsheets or local code. We're taking this to heart for BitBoard as well.
Totally. One thing that all major AI vendors are not doing currently is merging server AI with edge devices.
For example, there is no way neither in Claude nor in ChatGPT to run your own WASM or JS or whatever AI produces directly in user's browser context as a tool/skill - there is no call site for that. The only option is remote server-side.
My whole idea was that AI can perfectly write SQL and dashboard code knowing only the shape of your data and not it's contents. With direct upload to vendor now we're forced to share the contents.
I suspect stronger edge performance will come as a side-effect of local inference. Your point on edge tool calls is interesting and I'll think about that. Features like offline mode could be a great motivating reason. Re knowing the shape vs not the internals - I'm mixed here. It feels like there's always a sampling period where you have to look at contents in order to understand what you want. But edge AI (like antirez's work running DeepSeek on Mac) will let you have both. I'm excited for that future!
