The problem it solves

Your team relies on dashboards, but the moment someone needs a number that isn't already built, they have to wait on a data engineer to write a query. That back-and-forth slows down simple questions that should take seconds to answer.

Who it fits

A growing company whose non-technical staff need occasional insights from a BigQuery data warehouse without learning SQL.

How it works

  1. A team member types a question into a chat window
  2. An AI assistant translates the question into a database query
  3. The query runs against your BigQuery data automatically
  4. The assistant reads back the answer in plain English
What you get

Warehouse answers you get without writing SQL

You get plain-English answers about your BigQuery data through a simple chat window, no SQL knowledge required.

What you get

A plain-English answer to a data question, pulled live from your BigQuery warehouse.

What you need

A Google Cloud account with BigQuery access 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.
