dataZoa's dZ-Dot™ is a browser add-in with magical powers*. It that cooperates with authoritative websites around the world to get their time-series into dataZoa effortlessly.Highlights:
- As you browse a website, the dZ-Dot precedes you, marking compatible data with its little green icon
- Whenever you see the dot next to some data, you can drag (or just click to send) that data over to your dataZoa account
- As it lands in your account, there is magic:
- The data is harmonized, so it can immediately work with any other data in your account, from any other website
- The location is memorized, so we can check back periodically for updates and changes
- When we detect changes, they are automatically propagated through any calculations, displays, and dashboards that use the series
* Clarke's Third Law: Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.
