Shareable data reports from a chat message
By Queryless Team
When you ask Queryless a data question in Telegram, you get a clear text answer. That works well for simple lookups — “What was Nigeria’s GDP in 2023?” gets you a number and a sentence.
But many questions deserve more than a number. “How has GDP changed across BRICS nations over the last decade?” needs a chart. A comparison table. Context you can study at your own pace and share with a colleague.
Chat messages are ephemeral. They scroll away. You can’t bookmark them, and they don’t render charts.
Reports that live on the web
Starting today, when your question involves trends, comparisons, or rankings, Queryless automatically generates a full interactive report alongside the chat answer. You get both: a quick summary in the conversation, and a link to a rich web page.
Each report includes:
- Interactive charts — line, bar, area, and scatter plots built with Observable Plot. Hover for details, resize for any screen.
- Sortable data tables — search, sort, and paginate through the underlying data.
- Narrative summary — the same plain-language insight from the chat, preserved for context.
- Query details — the exact SQL query used, tucked away in a collapsible section for anyone who wants to verify.
How it works
Ask a question in Telegram. Queryless queries the data, writes a summary, and then generates a report page using Observable Framework — the same tool used by data teams at major newsrooms and research institutions. The page is built as static HTML, uploaded to the cloud, and a shareable URL is included in your chat response.
No login required. No server to keep running. The report is a static web page that loads instantly on any device.
Private by default
Each report gets a unique, unguessable URL — a random 16-character identifier. There’s no directory listing, no way to browse reports without a link. If you have the URL, you can see the report. If you don’t, you can’t. Simple access control without passwords.
Try it
Open @queryless_bot in Telegram and ask something like “Compare GDP of US and China over the last 10 years.” You’ll get your answer in chat, plus a link to an interactive report you can share with anyone.
