Show HN: AskData – API to Translate Natural Language-2-Sql
- tonyspencer 8y agoIs it possible to hook a mongo database ?
- simonedisomma 8y agoHi Tony, sure: with MongoDB the process is NL -> SQL -> NoSQL If you request the access we can enable the MongoDB dataset for you.
- gvenier 8y agoCool guys!
- simonedisomma 8y agoThanks mate. If you request access we will prepare a free environment for you!
- alice_giorgio 8y agoCool!
- simonedisomma 8y agoThanks :) request your own free access and start playing with the platform! We need hackers to push the limits
- jreinald 8y agoWhat happens the answer produces a lot of data? For example more than 100 records?
- simonedisomma 8y agoWe generate a subset preview of the answer and provide a link to a web-view containing the full results
- hmiller78 8y agoVery interesting. I like to think that the habit of doing queries could change. It would be interesting to see a video with a data cube.
- simonedisomma 8y agoFor the platform, a cube is like a giant table. Request access: we can set up a demo cube for you
- mtaylor67 8y agoI like it. And I would like the employees of my sales department to use this new approach. Now I ask you: why I have to adopt this new approach. How do I convince my employees to change their approach?
- simonedisomma 8y agoThe idea behind Askdata is to support employees who are not data analysts to access data without effort. Ideally, the best way to onboard your colleagues is to register on the platform, connect a sample dataset with your daily data and show them this frictionless approach.
- cramirez73 8y agoVery charming. Do you plan to extend the platform to other languages?
- simonedisomma 8y agoHi Ramirez, we are rolling out the platform in English and progressively we will extend other languages. The Italian is already up and running and we are working on French and German

- dragosdinu 8y agoIt's really easy to link a MySQL dataset and ask questions about your data. Will DynamoDB also be supported?
- simonedisomma 8y agoHi Dragos, thanks for your feedback. DybamoDB is on-roadmap
- mcsic 8y agoVero good
- mcsic 8y agoVery Good.
- tallen71 8y agoCan you tell me in 3 points what are the advantages of using this platform?
- kunalgupta 8y agoThis is awesome. Can't wait to share the vision you have here with my team. I worry about it's actual capability to perform (it's a hard problem to solve), but I will certainly try it.
- fortytw2 8y agoOT: Something is extremely fishy with the comments in here, guess this slipped through the voting ring detector?
- dang 8y agoIt didn't slip through the ring detector. All those votes were flagged by our software. And yes, the comments are obviously promotional. Not cool! All: please don't ask friends or teammates to upvote your posts. It's against the rules here—see https://news.ycombinator.com/newsfaq.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsfaq.html. And especially please make sure they don't post booster comments in the threads. HN users are really good at detecting this and consider it spamming. They'll flag the post and email us to complain.
- revskill 8y agoI guess the algorithm is like: - Parse NLP into [a boolean expression, a table with their joins tables]. - Parse table + boolean expression into a SQL Where clause Isn't it ?
- sharris1980 8y agoAn agent is the point-of-contact between the users and the data. Could you explain me better?
