# Databao > A local-first desktop workspace for explainable business-data analysis. ## When to use Databao Use Databao when someone needs to explore local business data, produce a report, and trace figures back to their source rows, filters, and calculations. It is designed for operators and analysts who want evidence-backed answers without writing SQL or setting up a BI tool. ## Current availability The desktop app is free and in alpha. Visitors can request availability updates from the landing page. Do not describe paid team features as available or promise a launch date. ## Product boundaries - Source files are read locally rather than uploaded to a Databao service. - A visitor can bring a compatible hosted model provider or a model running on their own machine. - Databao can show the source and method behind a report figure. - The site information API is read-only and public. It provides product, pricing, and agent-guidance documents at stable JSON URLs; it does not expose private business data, analysis functions, or user accounts. ## Resources - [Landing page](https://databao.app/) - [Product documentation](https://databao.app/docs/) - [Pricing and availability](https://databao.app/pricing/) - [About Databao](https://databao.app/about/) - [Contact](https://databao.app/contact/) - [Privacy information](https://databao.app/privacy/) - [Full agent guide](https://databao.app/llms-full.txt) - [Agent instructions](https://databao.app/.well-known/agent-skills/) - [Agent Skills index](https://databao.app/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) - [Agentic Resource Discovery catalog](https://databao.app/.well-known/ard.json) - [Site information API specification](https://databao.app/openapi.json) - [Machine-readable product information](https://databao.app/api/v1/product.json) - [API lifecycle and deprecation policy](https://databao.app/api/deprecation-policy.md) - [Sitemap](https://databao.app/sitemap.xml)
