Hey everyone, I’ve been experimenting with ways to display our HubSpot dashboards on screens around the office — specifically on a smart TV or a streaming device like Fire TV, Chromecast, or Apple TV. I’ve seen a few generic “TV dashboard” apps out there, but most don’t integrate directly with HubSpot or they require a bunch of workaround steps just to display live analytics. I’m curious: has anyone here implemented a TV app or solution that pulls in real-time HubSpot data (like leads, deals in pipeline, campaign performance, etc.)? What tools or methods are you using? Did you run into any security or display limitations? And if you’ve tried multiple options, which one felt the most reliable for day-to-day visibility? Would love to hear what’s working for your team! — Thanks in advance!
Hi @danielmartinhq,
This is a great question!
Displaying live HubSpot dashboards on office screens is a fantastic way to keep everyone engaged with real-time KPIs.
Here is what I would suggest: You can open your HubSpot dashboard in a web browser and use the full-screen mode while displaying it on your TV. Most smart TVs or streaming devices (like Chromecast or Fire TV) allow you to cast or mirror your screen, making it easy to keep your dashboard visible and updated in real time. Just make sure your TV or device browser is compatible with HubSpot.
Hopefully this helps! I’d love to hear what other community members have tried and what’s worked best for your teams as well.

Databox and Geckoboard work well for plug-and-play setups, but if you need more control or custom visualizations, I’ve built a few lightweight dashboard solutions using HubSpot’s Analytics API + a static web app hosted on Vercel or Netlify.
The approach: Query the CRM Analytics API every 5 minutes via a serverless function, cache the response in Redis or localStorage, then render it with a React/Vue dashboard optimized for TV resolution (1920x1080). This gives you full layout control and lets you pull in non-HubSpot data sources (Google Analytics, Stripe, etc.) into a unified view.
For authentication, create a private app with read-only analytics scopes and store the token server-side. The dashboard loads on the TV via any browser (Chromecast, Fire Stick, Raspberry Pi). No session timeouts since it’s token-based, and you avoid the UI bloat of the native HubSpot interface.
Cost is near-zero if you’re on Vercel’s free tier, and you can customize exactly which metrics show (pipeline velocity, conversion rates, deal stages) without relying on third-party widget limitations. Takes a weekend to build if you’re comfortable with API integrations.
Yeah, I’ve been messing around with this too—our office has a 55" Samsung in the lobby and we wanted HubSpot deals and MQLs up there without someone babysitting it.
Tried the browser-on-Fire-TV route at first (just full-screen Chrome with auto-refresh every 2 mins), but it kept logging out or freezing after a few hours. Plus, HubSpot’s mobile view looks weird stretched on a big screen.
What actually works for us now: Databox on a cheap Android box. Pulls pipeline value, new leads, and campaign ROI straight from HubSpot, updates every 5 mins, and the TV layout is clean—no sidebars or popups. Security’s fine; we just created a read-only API key with limited scopes and turned on 2FA.
Geckoboard was solid too (especially for sales leaderboards), but Databox felt lighter and had better pre-built HubSpot widgets. No crashes in 3 weeks, and the team actually glances at it during coffee runs.
Only downside: no native Apple TV app, so we’re stuck with Android/Chromecast setups. If anyone’s cracked a smooth Apple TV flow, shout—would love to swap notes!
