Chion is an AI-powered SQL analytics platform built specifically for PostgreSQL databases. It converts plain-English questions into SQL queries, interactive charts, and clear data insights. Unlike many text-to-SQL tools, Chion uses reviewed and approved queries to improve the accuracy of its answers. It displays the SQL behind every result, allowing teams to inspect and reuse queries. Chion also keeps database access read-only and lets teams export verified SQL skills to external AI tools.

How Chion Works

  • Connect: Connect a PostgreSQL database using read-only credentials. Chion profiles schema metadata without importing raw data.
  • Ask and Validate: Submit a question in plain English. Chion generates SQL, validates that it is read-only, and limits query results to 1,000 rows.
  • Verify and Compile: Review and approve queries in Chion Studio. Approved queries become reusable scripts and portable skill files.
