Introduction to QRY

Welcome to QRY (pronounced "query" - yes, we know it's clever)! We're the platform that lets you chat with your data like it's your colleague who actually responds to Slack messages.

What Makes QRY Different?​

Remember the last time you needed a simple data answer and ended up in a 3-day email thread with the data team? Yeah, we fixed that.

🗣️ Talk to Your Data (Literally)​

Forget SQL syntax that looks like ancient hieroglyphics. Just ask:

  • "Show me sales by region for the last quarter" ✅
  • "Which customers spent the most money and should get a fruit basket?" ✅
  • "Create a chart that'll impress the CEO in tomorrow's meeting" ✅

No SELECT * FROM complicated_table_name WHERE date >= DATEADD(...) nonsense. Just plain English. Or Spanish. Or any of 50+ languages, because data speaks all tongues.

🤖 AI-Powered Analysis (The Smart Kind)​

We've assembled the Avengers of AI models:

  • Claude Sonnet 4.5 (Anthropic) - The genius who handles your most complex "what if" scenarios
  • Gemini 2.5 (Google) - The speed demon for when you needed that answer yesterday
  • GPT-5 (OpenAI) - The reliable all-rounder who never lets you down

They're so good, they might make you question whether your data team is secretly a bunch of these AI models in trench coats. (They're not. Probably.)

🔒 Enterprise-Ready (AKA "Yes, Legal Will Approve This")​

We take security seriously so you don't have to explain to the CISO why customer data ended up in a random Slack channel:

  • RBAC: Granular permissions down to individual tables (because not everyone needs to see the CEO's expense reports)
  • Audit Logs: Complete paper trail of who asked what and when (for when things go sideways)
  • Budget Controls: Prevent AI costs from spiraling into "explain this to finance" territory
  • License Management: Enterprise-grade licensing that actually makes sense

🗄️ Connect to Everything​

Seriously, everything. If it stores data, we probably talk to it:

  • Cloud Warehouses: Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift, Databricks
  • Enterprise Platforms: Starburst, Cloudera, SAP HANA
  • Traditional Databases: PostgreSQL (with all the fancy extensions)
  • Business Apps: Salesforce (yes, your CRM data too)
  • Your Custom Tools: Via MCP integration (more on that later)

Basically, if your data lives there, QRY can analyze it.

The Cool Stuff (AKA Key Features)​

🧠 Memory System - It Actually Remembers You​

Unlike your goldfish (or that one colleague), QRY remembers your conversations. Ask about Q3 sales today, reference it next week, and QRY will know exactly what you're talking about. It learns your preferences, terminology, and even adapts to whether you prefer "revenue" or "moolah."

⏰ Scheduled Tasks - Set It and Forget It​

"Every Monday at 9am, email me the weekly sales report." Done. That's literally all you type. No cron jobs, no complex scheduling syntax. Just tell QRY what you want, and it becomes your most reliable colleague (the one who actually shows up on Mondays).

🐍 Python Execution - For When SQL Isn't Enough​

Need statistical analysis? Machine learning? Fancy matplotlib charts that'll make your presentation pop? Just ask. QRY runs Python code behind the scenes and even lets you download the results. It's like having a data scientist on speed dial.

📊 Automated Data Profiling - X-Ray Vision for Your Data​

QRY automatically analyzes your tables in the background, learning about data quality, distributions, and patterns. It's like having someone who actually reads the documentation before asking questions.

📚 Domain Context - Teaching QRY Your Business​

Upload your company glossary, business rules, or that ancient PDF everyone references but nobody can find. QRY absorbs it and uses it to understand your organization's unique language. Finally, an AI that knows what "adjusted EBITDA" means in your company.

🔌 MCP Integration - Infinite Extensibility​

Connect external tools, APIs, and services using the Model Context Protocol. Want to pull weather data? Stock prices? That weird internal tool Gary built in 2015? Connect it to QRY and ask away. It's like giving your AI analyst a Swiss Army knife.

📁 File Upload - No Database? No Problem​

Drag and drop CSV, Excel, JSON, or Parquet files. Instant analysis. No importing, no schema definitions, no "let me spin up a database real quick." Just answers.

🤝 Workspaces - Team Collaboration Without the Chaos​

Create shared workspaces where teams can collaborate on data analysis. Share conversations, upload documents for everyone to query, and benefit from collective AI memory. It's like having a team brain that actually remembers what was decided in last week's meeting.

Who is QRY For?​

👔 Business Users

AKA "The I-Need-Answers-Now Crowd"

Get data answers without learning SQL or bothering the data team. Ask in plain English, get charts and insights. It's like having a data analyst who responds instantly and never goes on vacation.

📊 Data Analysts

AKA "The SQL Wizards"

Stop writing the same queries over and over. Let QRY handle the routine stuff while you focus on the interesting problems. Plus, Python execution, automated profiling, and memory that actually works. You'll wonder how you lived without it.

🔧 Administrators

AKA "The Keepers of Order"

Granular RBAC, audit logging, budget controls, and comprehensive user management. Give people data access without giving yourself anxiety. Plus, everything's logged for when someone asks "who queried what?"

The Bottom Line​

QRY turns your databases into conversational partners. No more waiting for reports, wrestling with SQL, or trying to remember what JOIN syntax you need. Just ask questions and get answers.

Think of it as hiring a data analyst who:

  • Responds in milliseconds ⚡
  • Never complains about "urgent" Friday afternoon requests 😅
  • Remembers everything you've ever discussed 🧠
  • Works with any database or tool 🔌
  • Actually enjoys explaining things in plain English 🗣️

One More Thing...​

If you find yourself explaining to colleagues "wait, you can just ask it questions?" - yes, that's exactly the point. Welcome to the future where talking to databases is finally as easy as talking to humans.

(Arguably easier, since databases don't interrupt you mid-sentence.)

"Making data conversational, one query at a time." ✨
