An AI Data Analyst connects your database to LLMs and returns SQL plus results: implemented with Gemini + Vanna, Kaggle notebooks, a Vector DB and Compute Engine, and it queries Cloud SQL/BigQuery/Snowflake. It indexes 200+ tables (~600k tokens) to retrieve only relevant schemas, generates SQL, executes read-only queries, and limits outputs (30 rows) to avoid hallucinations. Deployment runs internally, costs are tracked, and the system is in internal test mode with thumbs-up/down feedback.
