Hey there! I’ve been working on DB Pilot for the last couple of months, and I recently added an AI assistant powered by GPT 3.5 to help you write SQL queries tailored to your DB schema. Simply ask what data you are looking for - GPT will figure out which tables to use, how to join them, and then write a query for you. The AI assistant knows which tables and columns exist in your database, meaning it can write queries specific to your schema. Besides that, it doesn't have access to any actual data from your database though, meaning your data doesn't get exposed to OpenAI.

SnapQL is an open-source desktop app (built with Electron) that lets you query your Postgres database using natural language. It’s schema-aware, so you don’t need to copy-paste your schema or write complex SQL by hand. Everything runs locally — your OpenAI API key, your data, and your queries — so it's secure and private. Just connect your DB, describe what you want, and SnapQL writes and runs the SQL for you.
