Summary
Claude has added live dashboards, and this video from Skill Leap AI shows how to use them. Unlike earlier dashboards built from an uploaded CSV file, these update in real time by pulling data from connected apps, and they can be shared with anyone through a link.
The presenter demonstrates seven dashboards built from simple prompts: an inbox command center using Gmail, Stripe revenue pulse and churn-versus-retention views, a profit and cash command center using QuickBooks, and combined views that draw on Google Calendar and Slack. One example merges multiple sources into a single business overview showing emails and Slack messages awaiting replies, upcoming meetings, revenue and bank balance.
The video explains the setup: connecting apps through Claude’s Customize page (connectors rather than plugins), choosing the best available model with extended thinking, and adjusting design options such as light and dark mode or blurred numbers for screen sharing. Viewers also learn how to combine the individual dashboards into one command center. A free resource with every prompt, the connectors needed and sample screenshots accompanies the video, making it easy for small business owners and professionals to build their own live reporting without writing code.
