Hierarchical spreadsheets are the natural, intuitive way to do analyses
A B-liner analysis is a break down of something into its component parts to any desired level of detail. A set of properties or attributes are displayed under each part showing the relationship of the parts to each other and to the whole. 
The example above is an analysis of a direct mailing. The mailing is broken down into customers and prospects. Customers are further categorized into 'Recent', 'Frequent web visitors' and 'Other'. The things of interest (properties) in this analysis are the number of pieces sent, the number of responses received and the return rate.  These properties are displayed in a grid under each category.

B-liner is a flexible general purpose analysis tool that is used in many different disciplines and professions. Most analyses are not "one of a kind" but fit into a pattern. For example, each direct mailing is analyzed in exactly the same way. Typically, the original analysis template or boiler plate is built by an analyst or domain specialist. These templates are then used routinely to evaluate, guide, set standards and help make decisions in day-to-day operations.

 
Visualize, Analyze
B-liner gives you a flexible, powerful visualization environment. It is simple and easy to use and keeps you focused. You see the whole picture and the relationship between the parts. Any changes are immediately reflected in the entire analysis. You can quickly analyze different options and scenarios. The spreadsheet has an extensive set of functions to handle the most demanding analyses.
Share
The analysis can be saved in different formats. For example, you can share analyses on the web as html or integrate the information using XML

"B-liner helps us to analyze complex issues and problems and, perhaps more importantly, share the analysis with others through a simple powerful form. B-liner is an essential part of my analytical toolkit."
