AskYourDatabase

Chat with your database in natural language

AskYourDatabase lets users chat with their databases using natural language, automatically generating SQL queries and visualizations from conversational questions. It autonomously creates dashboards and charts from queried data, serving as a self-serve reporting tool that reduces the business intelligence workload on engineering teams by letting non-technical users access data directly.

About AskYourDatabase

AskYourDatabase provides a conversational interface to relational databases where users ask questions in natural language and receive both SQL-generated results and automatic visualizations. The AI understands database schemas and generates appropriate JOIN queries, aggregations, and filters based on the user's intent. Follow-up questions refine results in context, mimicking a conversation with a data analyst.

The autonomous visualization feature analyzes query results and generates appropriate charts, graphs, and dashboards without requiring users to specify visualization types. The system selects bar charts for comparisons, line charts for trends, and tables for detailed data based on the query result structure. This eliminates the need for separate BI tools for basic reporting needs.

AskYourDatabase operates as a paid platform targeting organizations where engineering teams spend significant time fulfilling ad-hoc data requests from business stakeholders. By enabling self-serve data access through natural language, it frees engineers to focus on building features while business users get faster access to the insights they need.
