Data-driven slide decks and documents are pivotal in sharing data and insights within organizations and outside.\n\nRollstack is creating a new category in the modern data stack: Report Automation. We connect BI tools to slide decks and documents, automating their updates and creation, and effectively solving the last-mile problem of data presentation.\n\nWe assist some of the world's leading organizations, like SoFi, 1Password, and Zillow, in automating their slide decks and documents.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post\u0026id=68473\u0026key=user_uploads/1014460/6cba1652-9f20-4ffa-89ad-582de99942fd)\n\n### **Storytelling with slides and docs is too cumbersome today**\n\nDo you find yourself spending excessive amounts of time formatting data, charts, presentations, and documents to make them presentable? Are you challenged collecting data from various sources to create your presentations and documents? And once you finish, you find yourself repeating the same process for each new client, project, the next week, month, or quarter? You are not alone! It takes teams anywhere from a few hours to multiple days to create a single set of slides or visualizations. 50% of professionals create slides weekly. 75% of them reuse the same deck at least once, and 30% over 5 times!\n\n### **Rollstack solves this**\n\nRollstack automatically creates and updates presentations and documents using multiple data sources and updates them for you!\n\n[Rollstack allows you to easily connect to your favorite data sources](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UclmZkV6XkM), then takes care of refreshing your data where you want to present it. Rollstack also saves your formatting and visualization choices so that you never do the same task again, and allows you to create multiple variations of these reports at scale.\n\n[Rollstack AI](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zT4mC2LgaWc) empowers business users with intelligent, personalized, contextualized insights that integrate into presentations and report documents.","slug":"HoP-rollstack-report-automation-for-the-modern-data-stack","created_at":"2023-01-16T23:52:12.877Z","updated_at":"2026-05-25T03:57:05.058Z","total_vote_count":82,"url":"https://www.ycombinator.com/launches/HoP-rollstack-report-automation-for-the-modern-data-stack","share_image_url":"//bookface-static.ycombinator.com/assets/ycdc/yc-og-image-c440a0ad1dacfb86eeeb343717479cc54d256614449b4ef719977a0a451f8bc8.png","company":{"id":27692,"name":"Rollstack","slug":"rollstack-2","url":"https://www.rollstack.com","logo":"https://bookface-images.s3.amazonaws.com/small_logos/65e417fdebdce3308c883861f6f1ce40282921ab.png","batch":"Winter 2023","industry":"B2B","tags":["Artificial Intelligence","Productivity","Analytics","Data Visualization"],"search_path":"https://bookface.ycombinator.com/company/27692"}}
