Chat with Data

Talk to your data – in plain everyday language.

Ask questions like you would a colleague, instead of writing queries. The AI understands your question, fetches the answer from your database and shows it as a table, summary or chart – in seconds.

Tailored to your data sources – fully local on request.

Chat with Data: chat interface with an answer shown as a table and chart

What is it?

Chat with Data is a chat interface for your company data. You type a question in everyday language, the AI translates it into a safe database query behind the scenes, runs it and explains the result – including a fitting chart. No SQL, no report tools, no waiting on IT.

  • Questions in natural language instead of complex queries
  • Answers as a table, a plain-text summary and a chart
  • Knows your data model – tailored to your database
  • Runs on your server or fully local – your data stays with you

Features

Questions, not queries

„Top 5 customers last quarter?“ – the AI builds the query itself.

Answers with charts

Results as a table, a summary and a chart (bar, line, pie …).

Knows your data

Tuned to your schema – reads it itself and validates every query.

History & follow-ups

Conversations are kept; you can dig deeper and refine.

Read-only & validated

Schema validation and read-only queries – no risk to your data.

How it works

  1. You ask your question in natural language
  2. The AI reads the schema and builds a validated query
  3. The result appears as a table, text and chart
  4. How: Chat → AI agent (tool-calling) → validation → your database

The AI agent retrieves the database schema on its own, picks the right tables and validates every query before it runs. That keeps results reliable and the database protected.

The language model is interchangeable: cloud (Google Gemini, OpenRouter) or local (Ollama) – depending on how sensitive your data is.

What for?

Metrics on demand

Revenue, trends, top values – without waiting on a reporting team.

Data for everyone

Colleagues without SQL get their own answers too.

Ease reporting

Recurring analyses run as a dialogue instead of via tickets.

New insights

Explore with follow-up questions and discover connections.

Tailor-made for you

Chat with Data is not a rigid off-the-shelf product but the blueprint for an individual AI data solution. I adapt it to your data sources, your vocabulary and your workflows:

  • Connect your databases (MySQL, SQL Server, SQLite …) – individually or combined
  • Additional sources like files, PDFs or emails can be integrated on request
  • Your organization’s terminology and typical questions taught in
  • Chart and report templates to your specifications
  • AI model of your choice: cloud for speed or local for maximum confidentiality

Privacy & control: Runs on your own server or fully local – your data never leaves your premises. Read-only queries and server-side schema validation against injection – with support for a GDPR-compliant implementation.

Frequently asked questions

What does it cost?

Small projects at a fixed price, larger ones by effort. The price depends on data sources and customization – the initial consultation is free.

Does it work with my database?

Usually yes. MySQL, SQL Server and SQLite are included out of the box, and further sources – including files, PDFs or emails – can be connected.

Where does my data run?

On your own server or fully local. With a local model (Ollama), neither data nor questions leave your premises. I support a GDPR-compliant implementation.

Can the AI change my data?

No. Only read-only queries are allowed, and every query is validated against the schema beforehand – write access is technically ruled out.

Which AI is behind it?

Google Gemini, OpenRouter or a local model (Ollama), as you prefer. The model can be swapped without rebuilding the solution.

How quickly is it ready to use?

We start small with a clearly scoped data source and expand step by step – so you see first results quickly.

More than Chat with Data: Chat with Data is one building block of my AI data solutions – from structuring messy data to a searchable knowledge base. The technical details of the implementation are on the DB Assistant page.
