if you want a data platform that's built to work as one cohesive unit, we got you: https://www.definite.app/
Definite has a data lake, ETL, and BI in one app.
But I am not going to pay $1000/month as a bootstrap startup. What open source alternatives exist that can be run on basic hardware?

I built a company[0], SeekWell, in this space (launched before Census), but was mostly focused on Sheets and Slack as destinations. SeekWell was acquired a few years ago too.

Once you have customers and a good network of integrations with a large number of tools, I suspect it's easier to just buy that company than build it all yourself?
