🧭Explore
Quick Answer: Explore is Moselle's report builder. Click Explore in the left sidebar (under Analytics), pick a template or describe what you want in plain language, and Mo builds interactive charts and tables you can refine, save to reports, and share. Your first report takes about 2–3 minutes.
What is Explore in Moselle?
Explore is a workspace where you build custom reports by describing what you need in plain language. Instead of configuring filters and chart settings by hand, you tell Mo what you want to see — "weekly revenue by channel for the last quarter" — and Mo assembles the charts and tables on a canvas for you.
Explore works hand-in-hand with the Reports page:
Explore is where you build — an interactive canvas for asking questions and shaping the output
Reports is where finished work lives — anything you save from Explore appears as a report on the Reports page for you (and optionally your whole team) to revisit
Key Benefits
No configuration: Describe the report you need; Mo picks the right data, charts, and layout
Iterate conversationally: Ask for changes ("make it a line chart", "group by region") instead of rebuilding
From insight to action: Save any chart or table to a report, share it with your company, or send its findings into a forecast
Prerequisites
Time Required: 2–3 minutes for your first report Difficulty: Beginner
Before you begin, make sure you have:
Step-by-Step: Build Your First Report
Start from a Template or Describe What You Need
Option A — Templates. Click one of the ready-made starting points:
Weekly Sales Summary — units sold, revenue, and channel breakdown for the past 7 days
Forecast vs. Actual — compare forecasted demand against real sales to spot accuracy gaps
COGS Report — cost of goods sold breakdown by product, channel, and time period
PO Allocation Report — purchase order allocation and inventory coverage across channels
Option B — Plain language. Type what you want in the prompt box — for example, "Show me monthly revenue and units by channel for this year, plus my top 20 SKUs by revenue." Under Available datasets, you can click a dataset to tag it in your prompt so Mo uses exactly the data you have in mind. Click Build when you're ready.
Review Your Scratchpad
Mo opens alongside a canvas — called a scratchpad — and starts placing charts and tables on it. While it works you'll see "Mo is building your report — results will appear here."
Once assets appear, keep chatting with Mo to refine them, or use the icons on each card to reorder, delete, download, or save them to a report.
Success! Your scratchpad is saved automatically and listed under Your scratchpads on the Explore landing page, so you can pick up where you left off.
What is a Scratchpad?
A scratchpad is a working session in Explore — one conversation with Mo plus the canvas of charts and tables it produced. Scratchpads are drafts: they're for exploring and iterating. When a chart or table is worth keeping, save it to a report.
Scratchpads are saved in your browser on this device and are private to you. They won't appear on another computer, and teammates can't see them. To keep something permanently or share it, save it to a report — see Save & Share Reports from Explore.
To start a fresh session at any time, click New scratchpad at the top of the canvas.
Explore Threads Are Marked with an Icon
Your past Explore conversations are listed on the right side of the Explore page. Each one shows a circular icon marking it as a thread created in Explore & Build — click it to jump straight back into that scratchpad, with its canvas and conversation restored.
The same icon appears anywhere else Mo shows your conversation history, like the thread dropdown covered in Manage Mo Threads, so you can spot Explore threads at a glance.
What Data Can I Explore?
Explore works with the data you've connected to Moselle — sales, inventory, forecasts, costs, and purchase orders, depending on your integrations and uploads. The Available datasets list on the landing page shows exactly what's available in your account.
Hover over a dataset to see its metadata — identifiers, country, brand, and the other fields it includes. Click Preview to open a flyout with a sample of the table, showing that data in context before you build with it.
If no datasets appear, your data may still be syncing — or contact support@moselle.io.
Frequently Asked Questions
How is Explore different from asking Mo for a chart in chat?
Answer: In Mo chat, charts appear inline in the conversation. In Explore, Mo builds onto a persistent canvas with interactive tables you can sort, group, and format — and every asset can be saved to a shared report with one click.
Do I need to know anything technical to use Explore?
Answer: No. You describe what you want in plain language and Mo handles the rest. Tagging a dataset is optional — it just helps Mo start from the right data.
Can my teammates see what I build in Explore?
Answer: Not until you save it. Scratchpads are private to you and your browser. Saving an asset to a report and sharing that report with your company is how you make it visible to others.
