Let's Talk: How do global trade shifts and tariffs affect my prices and supplier choices?

Tariffs feel like distant headlines, until a supplier quietly raises their price. This week, our experts unpack what's really driving it.

New research shows 27% of Australians call beauty non-essential and unskippable, even as they cut back everywhere else in the basket.

New business numbers held steady in August

New business formation in Australia remains stable, but there's been a notable shift in the types of businesses being set up and who's behind them.

We asked AI what Australian services cost. Small businesses were in 5% of the answers.

Customers now ask AI answer engines such as ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews what a job should cost before they call anyone. We scored 1,459 answers about Australian businesses.

Events go in a metrics store. Embeddings go in a vector database. Analytics get their own warehouse… Now you're running three systems, three sets of tooling, and pipelines to keep them in sync, all for one app.

TimescaleDB collapses that back into the Postgres you already run. Hypertables handle events at scale. pgvector and pgvectorscale handle embeddings. Continuous aggregates handle real-time analytics. It’s the same SQL, same tools, and only one system to operate. The sync jobs disappear. The drift disappears. The second and third databases disappear.

It's still Postgres, so nothing about your workflow changes except how much you have to maintain. Start on Tiger Cloud and get $1000 in credits.
