Blobby Getting New Skills All Over the Place (Dashboard Building / Refining, Forecasting, Modeling, Salesforce MCP), Plus Treemaps, Custom Maps, Button Filters and More!!!
March 6, 2026
Agent Blobby is getting smarter. Now you can create a dashboard from scratch with just a prompt. We'll be layering in style files and other controls here, but a new dashboard is not a prompt away.
Dashboard building is about more than one-shot prompts. In parallel we're working on tools to sit alongside your existing dashboards for refinement post creations - editing, updating, arranging, deletion. Anything you can do with UI we're lifting into the AI experience.
Blobby has a new skill. Now you can layer instant forecasts onto your time-series data (including several model options).
We're still working on amazing AI tools for developers - here you see new branching controls and more dynamic back and forth to refine modeling actions by Blobby.
Blobby is now closing the loop. Here we show off a direct connection to Salesforce MCP for completely live data. And of course once you have the live connection it means you can also start updating records directly from Omni. Now your data analytics can lead directly into actions in your source systems.
Of course we want the most refined tools to managing model context for AI, but that doesn't mean we can't make passive learning and history seamless too. Here you see more work on automated modeling to learn from AI sessions.
We're still actively working on the filter experience for dashboards. Now you can toggle the filter type to a fully buttonized UI.
Brand new vis for the map lovers - now you can bring any custom SVG maps and interact easily.
Another new vis type, this for quickly navigating hierarchical proportions.
Few finishing touches on the cross-filter UX to make it feel intuitive and simple.
We want to continue showing more end-to-end use cases of how to tie together great data analytics, AI, and, most importantly, actions. William demos his new game (https://playpindrop.app, get in there and share your scores). But more than just an awesome game, we take a look at the analytics in Omni behind the scenes and how we can use that data to improve the user experience directly with balance adjustments.
A soup to nuts demo of Omni with data creation, model creation, all the way to dashboards and AI querying. Plenty of Snowflake Cortex with Claude and Cursor skills alongside plenty of Omni.
TJ shows off some new UX for multi-fact tables, including easy filtered measure building across tables.
A new quick-nav to the connection for a workbook, plus new auth tooling for BigQuery admins.
Bunch more refinement of dbt environments, including user tagging and more.
We're doing more than bulking up the product. Becca shows some new AI workflows we're using to beef up long-form guides for more complex modeling and analysis topics in Omni.
Quick internal tool to make sure we can track experimental builds we're testing.
Blobby Builds a Dashboard from Scratch

Salesforce MCP and Updates in Blobby
Blobby is now closing the loop. Here we show off a direct connection to Salesforce MCP for completely live data. And of course once you have the live connection it means you can also start updating records directly from Omni. Now your data analytics can lead directly into actions in your source systems.
Blobby Debugger

Button Filters for Dashboards
We're still actively working on the filter experience for dashboards. Now you can toggle the filter type to a fully buttonized UI.
Custom SVG Maps

Pindrop Game Plus Data Driven Tuning
We want to continue showing more end-to-end use cases of how to tie together great data analytics, AI, and, most importantly, actions.
