👋🏻Goodbye Power BI! 📊 In 2025 Build AI/ML Dashboards Entirely Within Python 🤖

TL;DR

December 2024 – The rise of data-driven decision-making has pushed businesses, analysts, and researchers to adopt tools that allow them to create dynamic dashboards and applications.
 
Many of these solutions, like Power BI, require users to learn proprietary languages such as DAX or PowerQuery.

Not a new language

 

What if you could avoid the hassle and stay entirely within Python —the language you already use for data science and machine learning?
 
Enter Taipy Designer & Taipy: a game-changing, open-source solution that lets you build dashboards and applications without ever leaving the Python ecosystem. And customization is your best friend here.

The Need for an Alternative

Popular tools like Power BI and Tableau dominate the market for business intelligence (BI) and visualization. But they often fall short for AI/ML practitioners due to:

  • Proprietary languages: DAX, PowerQuery, or other complex syntaxes require additional learning and reduce flexibility.
  • Limited integration: While some tools support Python scripts, their integration is often cumbersome and not designed for seamless ML workflows.
  • Fragmented ecosystems: Moving data between BI tools and Python-based ML workflows can lead to inefficiencies and potential data handling errors.

 

A 100% Python Solution for Data Applications

As an open-source tool, Taipy is free to use and customize, making it a cost-effective alternative to proprietary BI solutions. Its Python foundation ensures that users are not locked into a specific vendor or technology, providing both freedom and flexibility.
