we handle the full stack — data engineering, warehouse, dashboards, iteration, and on-call support — on a monthly retainer. no recruitment, no tool procurement, no handoff anxiety.
"replaced our reporting analyst, two bi tools, and a wall of spreadsheets — all for less than the analyst's salary." · marketing director, digital agency
pipelines built and maintained. sources connected, schemas standardised, nothing breaks silently.
bespoke looker studio dashboards designed around the decisions you actually make, not a template.
a standing slot every week for new metrics, edge cases, and refinements. your reporting evolves with the business.
pipeline breaks at 2am? we see it, we fix it. you read about it the next morning.
a 45-min walkthrough so the people who open the dashboards actually use them.
proactive anomaly detection. if a number looks wrong, we'll tell you before your ceo does.
"we'd been trying to hire a reporting analyst for six months. chartica replaced the role, the tools budget, and the freelancer we'd been patching things with — all in one retainer."
usually yes. a mid-level data analyst in the uk costs £45k–£60k in salary alone, before tooling, nps, management time, and recruitment. our retainers start at £1.5k/month for a small team setup. you get a full stack — pipelines, warehouse, dashboards, on-call — for less than half the cost of one hire.
completely. your data sits in your own google cloud project. we never co-mingle client data. if you stop working with us, we hand over a clean export and delete our access within 30 days. the warehouse, the dashboards, the schema — it's all yours.
a freelancer hands off when the project ends. we're an ongoing team: pipelines monitored, iteration baked in, on-call included. when something breaks at 2am or a source changes its api, you have cover. freelancers rarely offer that.
our default stack is looker studio (visualisation), bigquery (warehouse), and fivetran (ingestion). we add dbt for transformation on larger projects. all tools are either free-tier or charged at cost — we don't mark up licences.
google cloud platform (bigquery, gcs), fivetran, looker studio, and hubspot for crm. we're registered with the ico as a data processor and sign a dpa on every engagement. full sub-processor list available on request.
