Evidence Review & Alternatives (2026 Guide)
Business intelligence as code
Evidence is an open source, code-based business intelligence tool. It enables analysts to build automated reports by writing SQL and markdown, instead of using a drag and drop interface, like you’d find in a traditional BI tool.

Congratulations on the launch! This looks really solid, SQL + markdown is a really solid combo and having a degree of proper source control is a feature that's desperately missing from a lot of competing tools, very nice work.
I've been using Evidence for a while now, and am blown away. This is a game changer for Data teams. Please, please give it a try - especially if you do business-facing data analytics and are tired of the same-old same-old. On top of all this, the team is great, nice, and responsive. Love it!
Evidence is a game changer in bringing dynamic reports to life. I was looking for a solution to automate reporting with a fine-grained level of customization and found home in Evidence.
