About Schematic AI
Schematic AI is an AI data analyst for business data. Businesses can upload CSV and Excel files, ask questions in plain English, and receive answers backed by SQL queries against their own data.
What is Schematic AI?
Schematic AI is an AI data analyst that allows businesses to upload CSV and Excel files, ask questions in plain English, and receive answers backed by SQL queries executed against your uploaded data. It operates on the files that already exist within a business — exports from tools such as Shopify, Stripe, Meta Ads, HubSpot, QuickBooks, and similar business software.
The product is designed around the observation that much of the data a small business relies on is stored in exported spreadsheets rather than in a managed database. Rather than requiring SQL knowledge or a business intelligence dashboard, Schematic AI ingests those files directly and answers questions over them.
Who is it for?
Schematic AI is built for people who need answers from their business data but do not write SQL or maintain a data pipeline. The intended audience includes:
Founders
Need answers from their data but do not have time to build and maintain a reporting layer.
Operations teams
Work with exports from everyday business tools and need numbers to make decisions.
Finance teams
Analyze revenue, costs, and margins without waiting on ad-hoc reports.
Marketing teams
Compare campaign performance and attribution across channels.
Teams working with exported reports
Anyone who regularly handles CSV and Excel files pulled from their business software.
In short, it suits businesses that work with exported CSV and Excel reports on a regular basis.
What problems does it solve?
The product answers questions that otherwise require manual work in a spreadsheet or a custom report. Typical questions include:
- Which products generated the most revenue?
- Why did revenue decrease last month?
- Which marketing campaign had the highest ROI?
- Who are my highest-value customers?
- Which regions are growing fastest?
How it works
- Step 1
Upload files
Bring in the CSV and Excel files you already export from your business tools, whether one file or several.
- Step 2
Understand schema
Schematic AI examines the structure of the uploaded data to learn what each column and table contains.
- Step 3
Ask questions
You ask a question in plain English, with no formula, SQL, or dashboard required.
- Step 4
Generate SQL
The question is translated into a SELECT-only SQL query against your uploaded data.
- Step 5
Validate results
The generated query is validated before execution to help ensure it is safe and compatible with the uploaded data.
- Step 6
Explain answers
The answer is returned alongside the SQL used, so you can see exactly how it was derived.
Why trust the answers?
The product is built around a single principle: answers should come from the data, not from inference. It is reflected in the following design choices:
SQL-backed analysis
Every answer is produced by running a real SQL query against your uploaded data, rather than inferred from a summary.
Transparent generated SQL
The SQL used for an answer is shown to you, so the reasoning behind a number is open to inspection.
Validation
Queries are checked before execution, and results are confirmed before they are presented as an answer.
Warnings when assumptions exist
When a question depends on an assumption, or when the data is ambiguous, Schematic AI says so instead of hiding it.
Correctness over hallucination
When an answer cannot be derived confidently, the product says so rather than produce a plausible but unsupported number.
What Schematic AI doesn't do
To be clear about scope, Schematic AI is not the following:
- •A spreadsheet editor for editing or formatting cells.
- •A replacement for a dedicated BI dashboard system.
- •An autonomous AI agent that acts on your data without your direction.
- •A tool that silently modifies, deletes, or overwrites your uploaded data.
Frequently asked questions
Schematic AI is designed specifically for analyzing structured business data. Instead of relying only on natural language responses, it generates SQL queries against your uploaded data and shows the SQL used to produce each answer.
Yes. Schematic AI can analyze multiple uploaded CSV and Excel files together, making it easier to answer questions that span different business reports.
No. You upload your files and ask questions in plain English. Schematic AI writes the SQL needed to answer, so you do not have to.
CSV and Excel files. Multiple files can be uploaded at once and analyzed together, which is useful for data exported from different tools.
No. The product runs read-only SQL queries against your data. It does not edit, delete, or overwrite the files you upload.
Each question is translated into a SQL query that is validated before execution. The resulting SQL is shown alongside the answer so you can understand how the result was produced.
If the uploaded data cannot confidently answer a question, Schematic AI says so instead of generating a plausible answer.
Your uploaded files remain associated with your account and are not visible to other users. You can also review our Privacy Policy for details about how uploaded data is handled.
