Case Study: Nine Dynamics achieves democratized investment insights and faster analytics with Microsoft Power BI Embedded

Finance analytics startup delivers transformative insights, democratizes intelligence with Power BI Embedded

Nine Dynamics, a Calgary-based fintech startup, needed a way to deliver high-quality, easy-to-understand investment visualizations without spending scarce development time building dashboards from scratch. The company built an analytics and AI platform on Microsoft Azure and chose Microsoft Power BI—specifically Power BI Embedded—to embed interactive visualizations into new SaaS offerings like Coin Bandits and the upcoming Nine Dynamics Titan.

By integrating Power BI Embedded with Azure Analysis Services, Azure SQL Database, and Azure Stream Analytics, Nine Dynamics linked large datasets for dynamic calculations without heavy downloads, cutting complex scenario analysis from “all day” to under 15 minutes and avoiding weeks of custom visualization work. Microsoft Power BI enabled faster insights, a democratized analytics experience for retail and professional investors, a customer waitlist, and improved conversion of skeptical portfolio managers through persuasive, high-caliber visualizations.
