In this hands-on labs episode of This Week in NoCode + AI, JJ sits down with David, CEO and solo founder of Formula Bot, for a practical, live walkthrough of how AI is changing the way teams analyze data.

If you want to learn by doing, this episode is for you. JJ and David dive directly into the Formula Bot platform, connect real data sources, and show how AI can act as a true data analyst — answering questions, generating reports, and uncovering insights without complex dashboards or manual spreadsheet work.

You’ll see how Formula Bot evolved from a simple Excel formula generator into a full AI-powered data analysis platform that integrates with tools like Google Analytics, data warehouses, and more. David walks through key features including data connectors, automated reporting, web scraping, and enrichment — all designed to help teams move faster from raw data to decisions.

David also shares his journey bootstrapping Formula Bot to over $1M in revenue as a solo founder, what he learned along the way, and how he thinks about AI competing with (and complementing) tools like ChatGPT.

Whether you’re in finance, accounting, marketing, or running a small business, this episode shows exactly how AI can simplify data analysis and unlock insights you may be missing today.
