Getting Started

Welcome to Overscore — the platform for deploying and sharing AI-built dashboards. Build with Claude Code, deploy with one command, share a secure URL with your team.

Prerequisites

You'll need:

  • Node.js 18.17 or later on your local machine
  • A Google account (for sign-in)

That's it to get started. A data warehouse is optional at this stage: the connect step lets you start building with the starter data instead. When you're ready to use your own numbers, connect a Google Cloud project with BigQuery enabled using a service account JSON.

Coming soon

Postgres and Snowflake support are on the way. Get in touch →

How it works

Overscore is three pieces working together: a hub at overscore.dev, a CLI for shipping projects from your terminal, and a client library that handles auth + caching for you.

01

Build

Scaffold a project with create-overscore. Open it in Claude Code. Describe the dashboard you want.

02

Deploy

One command ships your project to our infrastructure with auth, hosting, and caching all wired.

03

Share

Send the URL to your team. They sign in with Google and the dashboard just works.

The deploy step looks like this:

# From your project root
$ npx @overscore/cli deploy

✓ Bundled in 2.4s
✓ Uploaded to overscore.dev
✓ Live at https://my-dashboards.overscore.dev

What you get

  • Secure hosting — your dashboards live on overscore.dev with TLS and auth out of the box
  • Google OAuth — viewers sign in once with Google, no password management
  • BigQuery proxy — your credentials stay encrypted on our backend; queries run server-side
  • Automatic caching — second-and-beyond loads hit cache, not your warehouse

Sign up

  1. Go to overscore.dev
  2. Click Sign in with Google
  3. You're in. The hub will be empty until you create your first project.
