Ask your database questions in plain English instead of SQL

An AI agent turns plain-English questions into database queries and gives you the answer directly.

How the work actually flows

A straight line.

The problem it solves

You want an answer from your business data but writing SQL is not something you or your team can do quickly. Waiting on a developer or analyst for a simple number or list slows everything down.

Who it fits

Business owners, analysts, or developers who need answers from a database without writing queries by hand.

How it works

  1. You ask a question in plain English
  2. The assistant looks up your database structure to understand what tables and fields exist
  3. It builds the right query and runs it against your database
  4. You get back a clear answer, summary, or list of records
What you get

Answers pulled straight from your data

You ask your question in plain English and get a clear answer pulled directly from your database, no query writing needed.

What you get

A direct answer, summary, or data extract pulled straight from your database.

What you need

A Supabase or 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.
