Dashboard challenges we solve
Common dashboard issues in apps built with Windsurf or v0.
Query performance at scale
AI-generated dashboards run raw database queries on every page load. With thousands of rows, these queries take seconds or minutes instead of milliseconds. You need materialized views, pre-aggregated data, proper indexing, and caching to keep dashboards responsive.
Data accuracy
A dashboard that shows wrong numbers is worse than no dashboard at all. AI tools generate SQL aggregations that look correct but miss edge cases — timezone handling, duplicate records, null values, and off-by-one errors in date ranges produce silently incorrect metrics.
Access control and data exposure
Dashboards display sensitive business data. AI tools often skip role-based access, meaning anyone with the URL can see revenue figures, customer data, or operational metrics. Different team members need different data visibility levels.
Real-time vs. cached data
Some metrics need to be live (active users, system status), while others can be cached (monthly revenue, historical trends). AI tools either make everything real-time (slow, expensive) or everything static (stale). You need a thoughtful caching strategy.
Chart and visualization bugs
AI-generated charts often have subtle issues — wrong axis scales, misleading truncated Y-axes, color schemes that are indistinguishable for colorblind users, and tooltips that show raw data instead of formatted values. These issues erode trust in the data.
Filter and drill-down interactions
Users need to filter by date range, segment, region, or other dimensions and drill into the details behind any number. AI tools build static charts but not the interactive filtering and drill-down that makes dashboards actually useful for decision-making.
