dataZoa's dZ-Dot™
is a browser add-in with magical powers*.

It 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.
