camelAI turns your database into an AI data analyst. Ask questions in plain English, get instant reports with visualizations - no SQL required.<p>Why we built this:
- Business teams waste hours waiting for data analysts to build dashboards
- Non-technical founders can't get quick insights from their own data
- Writing SQL queries is a barrier to data-driven decisions<p>What makes it different:
- Uses DuckDB to query terabytes in seconds (built-in, no setup needed)
- Supports advanced analytics (cohort analysis, statistical computations) not just basic SQL
- Multi-turn conversations: AI explores your schema, analyzes results, and creates interactive charts
- Explains its reasoning and suggests follow-up analyses<p>Tech details:
- Query engine: DuckDB for lightning-fast analytics
- AI: Claude Sonnet for chat agent, o1 for report generation
- Native connectors: Postgres, MySQL, Supabase, BigQuery (beta) (more to come)
- Also supports: CSV, Excel (beta)<p>Video demo: <a href="https://camelai.com/demo/">https://camelai.com/demo/</a>

- "What's driving our recent user churn?"
- "Show me conversion rates by marketing channel"
- "Which features correlate with user retention?"<p>We're a team of ex-Apple/Google engineers who believe data analysis shouldn't require a CS degree. Would love HN's feedback, especially on our query generation and accuracy.
Awesome demo! I piloted a very similar product at my then 15 person company so hopefully you find this feedback useful:<p>The product seems great if you're familiar with the data and schemas, but for a product like this to appeal to teams and have impact for anyone on a team there needs to be
(1) a way to provide system prompts and add business/product context to the underlying schema
(2) a way to store historical queries that can be used as a starting point for other users, much like saving a query, model, or dashboard in a BI tool<p>I hope to see more news about CamelAI in the future. Good luck!
