Everyone should be a data analyst. Turn questions into insights instantly with AI and billions of rows of data on crypto, sports, and everything in between📊

We started Finisterra Labs with a clear vision: to index the world’s structured data. Over the last two years, we've amassed over 510 billion rows of data across 87,000 datasets. It’s been an incredible journey building a platform that changed how we interact with data. 🧵

Baselight Weekly Update: 80K+ datasets, nearly 500K tables, and now DuckLake support. With this milestone, Baselight now supports 3 lakehouse formats: - Baselight's native format - Apache Iceberg - DuckLake Current catalog scale: 512B rows (+3B this week) 489K tables (+4K) 80K datasets (+1K)

What does the world look like in 2026? The GDELT Events Dataset tracks every major news event globally. Here's what 2026 looks like so far: 15.7 million events recorded in just 5 months 62% of events are cooperative - but tone is still negative This isn't just data. It's the pulse of the planet.
