Key Features

​
Natural Language Queries

Simply ask questions about your data in plain English:

How many users signed up last month compared to the previous month?

What are the top 5 products by revenue in Q3?

Show me the average order value by customer segment

​
Intelligent Schema Discovery

The agent works very autonomously:

  • Automatic table and relationship discovery: Finds all tables and views without manual configuration, understands foreign keys and table relationships
  • Scales to enterprise: Handles databases with thousands of tables efficiently
  • Smart analysis: Generates optimized SQL queries based on your questions, runs them, analyses and explans the results

​
Safe and Secure

  • Read-only access: No queries would ever mutate data, even if DB credentials allow that
  • Smart pagination: Large result sets are intelligently chunked to avoid context overflow
  • Query validation: Ensures all generated SQL is safe and optimized

​
Common Use Cases

  • Business intelligence: Get insights from your data without learning SQL
  • Data exploration: Understand new databases and their structure
  • Report generation: Create comprehensive data summaries and analysis
  • Troubleshooting: Investigate data quality issues and anomalies
  • Schema documentation: Generate explanations of database structure and relationships

​
Getting Started

  1. Set up connection: Configure your database credentials through the Exponent interface
  2. Start asking questions: Begin with simple queries about your data
  3. Explore deeper: Ask follow-up questions to dive into specific insights

The agent will handle all the technical complexity of SQL generation, query optimization, and result interpretation. You don’t need to understand how your database works—the agent will discover and learn the schema automatically.

​
How It Differs from Traditional BI Tools

  • No setup required: Start analyzing immediately without dashboards or pre-built reports
  • Conversational interface: Ask follow-up questions and refine your analysis naturally
  • Automatic insights: The agent provides context and explanations, not just raw data
  • Schema-agnostic: Works with any database structure without prior configuration
  • Enterprise-scale: Efficiently handles complex databases with thousands of tables
