DataArcus

Power BI reports designed right, and checked in Power BI, not just generated. Arabic, right to left and the Gulf calendar, next to Microsoft's tools.

This repository is the source of dataarcus.com: free Power BI tools that run in your browser (nothing you open in them is uploaded), articles in English and Arabic, and the Power BI Desktop measurements behind the tools.

Free tools

How we check our work

• Automated tests on every change: every website test suite (the list is ALL in scripts/tests/run-all.mjs) and the MCP's tests run on each pull request and push to main.

• Microsoft's own validator: our test runs check the reports the tools write, on our sample models, with Microsoft's report validator. The website's tools don't run it on the reports you make in your browser; the DataArcus MCP runs it on your machine on each report before it is written, and in check_report.

• Measured in Power BI Desktop: sizes, layouts and numbers are measured in Power BI Desktop, never estimated, and recorded with the version used.

• Sourced facts: prices, dates and Microsoft claims are linked to their source and re-checked. The Gulf calendar's announced Ramadan and Eid dates for the UAE and Saudi Arabia, each with its source, are in scripts/gulf-calendar/DATES-SOURCES.md.

Measurements

What was measured in Power BI Desktop, on which version, how, and the quirks found, is in scripts/tests/DESKTOP-TESTS.md.

The AI report designer

An AI report designer for Power BI (it works with Claude on your own machine and writes new files only: the one file it ever replaces is its own answers file, after you approve) is in private beta. Interested? Write to hello@dataarcus.com.
