Why We Built Cambium AI

Public datasets,  from detailed demographic profiles and economic indicators to regional trends, hold immense value for marketers, policymakers, researchers, and founders alike. Yet these resources often remain underutilized, buried under CSV files and complex APIs that turn quick analyses into multi-week projects.

Traditional workflows can be daunting. Hours are lost navigating government portals, wrestling with authentication keys, or writing SQL queries to extract basic figures. Outsourcing to research firms runs tens of thousands of dollars,  and by the time you receive those polished reports, market conditions may have already shifted.

Introducing Cambium AI

Imagine asking a question in plain English,  no code, no spreadsheets,  and seeing polished charts, interactive maps, and downloadable tables in seconds. That’s Cambium AI. Our no-code platform taps into trusted repositories like the U.S. Census Bureau and the American Community Survey (ACS), transforming raw public data into clear, actionable insights in minutes, not months.

    Type any question, such as “Compare household income and poverty rate in Texas and Florida”,  directly into our search bar.

  2. We Parse
    A natural-language engine interprets your intent and identifies the relevant datasets.

  3. We Fetch
    Data pipelines pull the latest figures from Census, ACS, and other public sources.

  4. We Visualize
