AI for Database review

No. You ask in plain English and it writes and runs the query against the connected database. SQL is still useful for checking complex answers, but nobody has to write it to get a number.

Postgres, MySQL, MariaDB, SQL Server, MongoDB and Google Sheets. Connections go over TLS with a dedicated read-only database user, which is also the safest way to run it.

Yes by default. The connection is used to read and introspect the schema, so the product's own access cannot change your data. Writes are a deliberate choice, not the default setting.

Start free. Beyond that you buy credit top-ups of $10, $25, $50 or $100, and the credits do not expire, so an unused balance carries over. AI usage pauses when the balance hits zero rather than billing you unexpectedly. The Team plan is $50 per user per month and includes a per-user credit balance.

No. There is no weekly limit and no monthly reset, so an unused balance stays in your personal balance until you spend it.

Yes, and it does not ask for a card. You connect a database and judge whether the answers are usable before paying anything.

Yes. Dashboards and reports are generated from the same connected data, and the answer to a question can become a saved view rather than a chat message you lose.

Yes. Scheduled workflows and webhook-driven actions mean the tool can watch a number and react, instead of waiting for someone to open the tab and ask.

It covers the question-answering and dashboard half of what those tools do, for teams that do not want to run a BI stack. It is not a governed semantic layer with heavyweight permission modelling, so large regulated deployments usually keep their existing BI tool and use this alongside it.

Yes, on the Team plan: invite colleagues into a shared workspace, with each person holding their own credit balance.

Yes. A database that is not exposed to the public internet can be reached through an SSH tunnel to a bastion you control, which is how most strict environments run it.

Because it runs on serverless infrastructure, so outbound connection IPs are dynamic and two requests can leave from different addresses. The working pattern is a dedicated read-only database user over TLS, or an SSH tunnel.

ChatGPT gets pasted rows and guesses. This connects to the live schema, introspects it, and answers against current data, with the same connection powering dashboards and alerts.

AI for Database is free to start. Credits are bought as top-ups and do not expire. Prices and credit allowances are stated on the vendor's site and change; confirm there before buying.

Yes: Free (Free, no card). Credits are bought as top-ups and do not expire. Prices and credit allowances are stated on the vendor's site and change; confirm there before buying.

People who ask their database questions in English and want an answer, a chart or an alert without writing SQL.

The read-only default and the credit balance that never resets are the two decisions worth noticing. It is not a governed BI platform with a semantic layer, and it needs a database you can actually connect, so it suits small and mid-sized teams far better than a regulated enterprise warehouse estate.

Your team asks you for numbers all day and you would rather point them at a tool than write the query yourself.
