Monarch has distributions with predetermined bucket boundaries. These are indeed very useful.
Pet peeve: it can calculate and graph something it calls a quantile. But if the value is in the middle of a large bucket, it will just interpolate or something and the result will be terribly misleading. It'd be much better if it gave lower/upper bounds.
I try to use distributions via questions of the form "what fraction of values are less than / greater than N [which I've verified is a bucket boundary]?". This gives you an answer you can trust.
