The problem it solves

Getting a simple answer out of your database usually means writing SQL or waiting on a developer to run a report. Small questions turn into tickets, and by the time you get an answer the moment has passed.

Who it fits

Business teams who need quick answers from a database without knowing SQL.

How it works

  1. You ask a question in a chat window
  2. The AI remembers recent context to understand follow-up questions
  3. The AI turns your question into a safe database query
  4. The query runs against the database and returns results
  5. The AI turns the results into a plain-English answer
What you get

Answers from your data without writing queries

You get plain-English answers to questions about your business data, without needing anyone who can write database queries.

What you get

A conversational, plain-English answer pulled directly from live database data.

What you need

A PostgreSQL database and an OpenAI API key.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
