“How ThePowerMBA saves 40 hours per month reporting financial data using Retool”

As published on retool.com. Captured by usedby on Oct 8, 2026.

What happened

ThePowerMBA connected its MongoDB order data to Retool to build a real-time financial reporting dashboard showing orders, revenue, and cashflow. It also built a sales tool that generates custom purchase links for customers.

Summary written by usedby from the source page, in English. The figures are those of Retool and ThePowerMBA, not ours.

  • 4 to 5 days“The whole process took 4 to 5 days to complete, during which Gonzalo would generate a CSV, upload it to Google Sheets, and create visualizations from the spreadsheet.”
  • 20 payment providers“So the development team created a payment gateway to integrate more than 20 payment providers, sending the orders to MongoDB—but he still faced one problem: “I wasn’t able to show visualization of revenue to our team.””

Now, using Retool, the dashboard instantly generates reports on an ongoing basis that are accurate and up to date—no more errors from manual data processing.
