Vizpads
Dashboards report. Vizpads reason.
Most tools stop at the chart. A Vizpad is the canvas that carries a question past it — all the way to finished work, live on your governed data.

What is a Vizpad?
A Vizpad is Tellius's interactive canvas — it takes shape as you explore your data, not from a blank page. Ask a question and the charts that answer it become tiles you keep: group them into tabs and sections, format every element down to the axis tick and conditional rule, and scope filters across four levels — global, tab, section, and chart — including aggregated-column and bulk filters built for enterprise-scale data. And you keep full drag-and-drop control over all of it, across 25+ visualization types.
What separates it from an ordinary BI dashboard: nothing on a Vizpad is a dead end. Click any data point and Tellius returns the drivers behind it; drill to the finest grain, switch the metric across every chart at once, set a point to watch for change, or stand up a forecast or key-driver model in place. Kaiya also writes customizable summaries for any chart or a whole tab. Then export any scope to PDF, PowerPoint, Excel, or CSV, or embed charts wherever your team works.
FormattiNg
Style every pixel, down to the tick
Command every element on the chart
Titles, colors, number formats, labels, axes, gridlines, and legends are all yours to shape — real per-element control, not a preset theme.
Let the data flag itself
Conditional-formatting rules recolor a bar or cell the instant a value crosses a threshold, so the exceptions surface on their own.
Anchor every chart to its target
Drop target and baseline benchmark lines — more than one per chart — so every trend reads against the number that counts.
Filtering
Four tiers of scope, one panel
Filter at true enterprise scale
Filter on aggregated totals instead of raw rows, and paste thousands of values in one shot.
Explore fast, commit once
Isolate a value in a click, stack up several filter changes, and apply them together in a single re-query.
Scope each filter exactly where it belongs
Point any filter at the whole Vizpad, a tab, a section, or one chart — even across different Business Views.
Kaiya summary
The numbers come with the story
Read it in exactly the right voice
Choose the tone — formal, casual, or neutral — and the length, so every summary fits your audience.
Summarize one chart or a whole tab
Turn on a summary for one chart, or let Kaiya narrate an entire tab as a single connected story.
Always current, never stale
Every summary regenerates the moment a filter changes or the metric switches, so the words always match the numbers.
Take it anywhere
Export the chart, or the whole Vizpad
Export exactly the scope you need
A single chart, the current tab, all tabs, or a hand-picked selection — you decide how much leaves the Vizpad.
Download it, or email it directly
Save to your machine, or send it on with a subject, message, and CC/BCC already built in.
Embed a live chart anywhere
Drop any chart into a page or portal with a live Embed URL that stays in sync.
Schedule & deliver on a cadence
Send the whole Vizpad to a recipient list automatically — say every Monday at 8:00 AM.
Two modes, one canvas
Read it, or shape it
A Vizpad works two ways. In View mode you explore and share. In Edit mode you shape and build on it. Both are deep — here's what lives in each.
View mode
Explore, personalize, and share
Master & Custom views — keep your own filtered, formatted version of a shared Vizpad without ever touching the master view.
Switch Metric — swap the measure across every applicable chart from one dropdown, and the whole story re-renders at once.
Every point is a launchpad — click any value to drill in, surface the drivers, forecast it, or watch it for change. Nothing here is a dead end.
Edit mode
Build any chart in a few clicks
Add a chart — choose from 25+ chart types, each showing exactly which measures and dimensions it needs.
Configure it — drag and drop your columns into a comprehensive set of fields to control what the chart measures, groups by, and colors.
Format & filter in depth — restyle every element of the chart, and scope filters to the whole Vizpad, a tab, a section, or one chart.
Build any chart
Build it yourself, in seconds
Build it by dragging
Drop measures and dimensions into the fields — measure, dimension, color, sort, tooltip — and Tellius renders a finished chart live as you build.
Change the chart type at any moment
When the question shifts, switch the visualization in a single click and everything you have already configured carries straight over.
Smart guardrails, always on
If a chart type cannot support the measures and dimensions you have chosen, Tellius greys that option out automatically.
Reproducible & traceable
Same question, same answer — traceable to the query behind it.
Sharing & permissions
Set View or Edit rights when you share, and pin key Vizpads to the top for a group.
Your perimeter
Runs on your governed data, inside your access model.
FAQ
Questions on Vizpads
How is a Vizpad different from a BI dashboard?
A dashboard shows the number and stops. A Vizpad packs a full workbench into every tile: 25+ chart types, per-pixel formatting, four-tier filtering, Kaiya narratives, and a click-to-investigate launchpad — so the chart is the start of the analysis, not the end.
How many chart types are there, and how do I pick?
25+ - bar, line, area, combo, pie, scatter, bubble, KPI, treemap, heatmap, Sankey, waterfall, funnel, cohort, Yoy, maps. and more. When you add one, Tellius shows its minimum measures and dimensions inline, so you always know whatto drag in.
Do I need to be technical to build one?
No. Pick a chart type and drag columns into Measure, Dimension, and Color. The title auto-generates, the chart renders live, and Kaiya's narratives make it readable for non-technical teammates — no SQL, no BI backlog.
How much control do I have over formatting and filtering?
A lot. Formatting spans title, background, colours, number formats, data labels, axes, grid, legends, conditional rules, and benchmark lines — plus pinned columns and alignment for tables. Filtering runs across four scopes with aggregated-column filters and bulk lists up to 5,000 values.
Can Kaiya explain what my charts mean?
Yes. Turn on a summary and Kaiya narrates the chart — or the whole tab — in the tone (formal, casual, neutral) and length (brief, moderate, detailed) you choose, and it regenerates automatically when the data changes.
How do I share or export a Vizpad?
Export a single chart or the whole Vizpad to PDF, PowerPoint, Excel, or CSV — download it or email it with a message. You can also embed a single chart with a live URL, schedule recurring exports, and share with view or edit permissions.
