The problem it solves

Getting a simple number out of your database usually means waiting on whoever knows SQL, or exporting spreadsheets just to answer one question. You want to ask about your numbers the same way you'd ask a colleague, and get a straight answer back.

Who it fits

A business owner, manager, or analyst with data in a PostgreSQL database who isn't comfortable writing SQL.

How it works

  1. You type a question in plain English into a chat window
  2. The AI works out what data it needs and writes the matching database query itself
  3. It runs that query directly against your PostgreSQL database
  4. It reads the results and turns them into a clear written answer
  5. You get your answer back in the chat, with no spreadsheet exports needed
What you get

Database answers without writing a query

You can type a plain English question and get an answer pulled straight from your PostgreSQL database, no SQL knowledge required.

What you get

A direct written answer to your question, pulled live from your database.

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.
