Query databases in everyday language
Teams query databases in everyday language instead of writing SQL
Fits: Leaders & strategy · Sales · Finance & accounting · IT & software development
Specialists ask questions like “Which five customers in Bavaria ordered the most in 2025?” themselves instead of waiting for IT. The AI writes the query, displays it and explains what it counts.
Is this for you?
- You have a database or data warehouse with tables whose meaning someone can explain.
- Today, specialist departments wait for reports from IT or laboriously copy data into Excel.
- There is someone who can judge queries and results from both a business and a technical point of view.
Describe two tables in your database with column names and made-up example rows, without real customer data, and use the template below to have a query written for a real question. Run it on a test copy and recalculate the result for one customer by hand.
How to go about it
- Collect frequent questions and expected answers
- Provide read access, a table description and a test copy
- Have queries generated
- Check queries against known results
- Approve it for the specialist department
- Maintain the table description and example questions
