Show HN: Open source AI data analyst locally using CLI
github.comHi HN, last week we launched Dravid (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40947238) an AI-Powered CLI Coding Framework and received great feedback.
We thought this would be a great extension to build something similar for data analysts, data engineers and analytics engineers. Few building blocks we've added:
- Natural language to SQL query conversion - PDF Report generation (can use reference files for formatting) - Support for various LLM providers (Claude, OpenAI, Azure, Custom, Ollama) - Interactive chat mode for continuous database querying - Automatic context generation from database schema - Customizable context for improved query accuracy - Optimized for smaller database subsets (up to 10-15 tables)
Would love to hear your feedback on this!
What’s the best reason to use this tool?
- Best way to point to a csv, local files, local postgres/mysql and iteratively build a highly accurate system to chat with the data. - We auto generate yaml files so you can transparently edit them and watch real time how the accuracy improves. - You can point to local pdf's and auto generate reports from dashboards.
Overall we felt this is a light weight framework to create a highly accurate personal AI data analyst without any vendor lock-in.
