Hello!

After our 2025 Review, let’s focus on 2026!

2025 was all about personal changes, new environments, and a complete lack of routine… Not the best combo to focus on work!

After finally settling, Jessica and I sat in a bar and started asking: What’s the plan for 2026? After a few beers and many ideas, here’s our plan!

Fundamentally, our main aim remains the same: to continue building more and better products to increase product revenue.

Our aim remains the same, but the method changes slightly every year following this pattern:

When I started in 2019, with no products and no clients, I could spend an entire year focusing on each aspect: learn, experiment, share, thrive.

Since then, Jessica has joined, and we now need to balance existing and new products and clients. We continually need to learn, experiment, share, and maintain our existing products.

That’s why this year we are not focusing on a single key aspect; we’ll keep the same philosophy, but through a much faster cycle.

Do you also feel that things are moving a bit too fast right now?

It seems every week there’s a new AI model, a new tool to try, a new feature. Just in the Tableau world, we barely scratched the surface of what we could potentially do now with the MCP server, VDS, and the Authoring Extensions.

AI might be in a bubble, but it’s also here to stay (hopefully in a different way than replacing every human with an incompetent chatbot, though).

This year, one of our priorities will be releasing tools, extensions, or new features that leverage AI capabilities to help you (and us) do our jobs.

Currently, all our products are focused on one tool: Tableau. Yes, we have a plugin in Figma, but it’s designed for Tableau users.

Tableau continues to grow with the recent addition of Tableau Next. It’ll be interesting to see if and how they open the platform to allow us developers to build on top of what exists.

However, there’s another important question: should we explore beyond Tableau?

Are there any tools you use that could benefit from our extensions or tools? A few people have already reached out, asking us to add our extensions to Power BI or Sigma.

Part of learning new stuff this year, we’ll explore ways to port our extensions to new spaces!

Thriving is making sure we continue to improve and maintain what we already built.

Our two main products, Viz Extensions and the Figma to Tableau plugin, are used by companies of all sizes that trust us… And we don’t plan to disappoint!

That’s why, throughout the year, we’ll also keep improving them, and we already have a few ideas in mind.

And of course, we’ll continue to add quality-of-life improvements and ensure our extensions and plugins work in all environments and with all Tableau versions.

Sharing, through this newsletter, on YouTube, at events, and on social media, is probably equally important as learning and building.

We can build the best data viz product that exists, but if you don’t know about it, it’s no use. This year, we want to focus on two areas.

For most tech-oriented people and small business founders, it’s also the most difficult. It’s very time-consuming and does not feel as important as the rest.

That’s why we needed some help! Over the next few months, we will work with Sophie Sparkes to create more content for LinkedIn.

You may have noticed that we posted more stuff last week, and we were able to see a direct impact on our content performance. Hopefully, this will help us have more people on this newsletter and more people aware of our tools.

Our existing videos continue to generate views (and sales!), even though we have not posted anything new in 2025.

YouTube is still the best platform to showcase our tools, and I have always liked making videos, so we want to bring them back!

New place means new background (still improving) and new challenges, but hopefully the first video will be published in the first quarter.

This year, Jessica also wants to explore making video content (in both English and Spanish), so stay tuned for that!

Now that we shared all the details, here are our final 2026 goals:

Let’s see how it goes!
