Hi @jimrosser ,
Firstly, ArcGIS for Power BI is indeed an add-in that enriches Power BI reports with geographic data visualization, offering capabilities such as mapping, demographic data, location analytics, and spatial analysis tools.
There is a question about the login page, this is an optional option where you can choose to use it directly without logging in, or if you log in to a validly licensed ArcGIS account, you will be entitled to access more features. You can refer to this documentation.
Regarding the Infographics functionality, it's important to note that this feature allows you to add interactive infographic cards that display demographic details about the region surrounding your data. However, the availability of Infographics and the depth of demographic data you can access depend on whether you are signed in with a Standard (free) or Plus (subscription-based) ArcGIS account. Users with a Plus subscription have access to a broader range of United States and global demographic variables. About this you can find more information here.
And may I ask what version of Power BI Desktop you have? Because I've tested it, using ArcGIS map for Power BI in the much newer Power BI Desktop doesn't require a login screen. This is my Desktop version:
