How it works

Ask Teddy

Ask Teddy turns a plain-English question into a safe, cost-capped SQL query and an instant chart — no analyst, no dashboard-building, no waiting in a support queue.

Business Applications

1 Self-serve analytics

Any team member gets answers from the company's own data in seconds, without learning SQL or waiting on the data team.

Productivity
2 Lower analyst workload

Routine "how many / how much / show me" requests are answered instantly, freeing analysts for higher-value work.

Efficiency
3 Governed data access

Every query is read-only and restricted to an approved dataset, so teams get answers without any risk to the underlying data.

Safety

High-Level Technical Workflow

1 Question Understanding

The question is checked for ambiguity and, if unclear, the user is offered a couple of precise rewrites to pick from.

2 Schema-Aware SQL Generation

The relevant tables are retrieved and a single SQL query is generated against the real schema — or an honest refusal if the data can't answer it.

3 Safe, Cost-Capped Execution

The query is validated, cost-checked, and run with a timeout; a second model independently reviews the result for correctness.

4 Instant Visualization

The right chart type is chosen automatically from the result's shape and rendered live — no code execution involved.
