What is dataface.ai?
dataface.ai is on-source conversational analytics. Ask a question in plain English, and it generates read-only SQL from your schema metadata and runs it on the systems you already own. No warehouse copy, no pipeline.
Seconds for simple questions. Minutes for the ones that take an analyst hours. All from your own data.
Opens a scripted preview that answers from this page. Nothing is sent to a model.

A pilot on your own data in weeks
Every industry below runs on a working demo of that business. Pick yours to see the problem, how dataface.ai helps, and what changes.
The question on the table
“Which payer drove the denial spike last quarter, and what is it costing us?”
What it costs today
Denials surface at month-end, spread across claims, remittances, and payer contracts. By the time someone reconciles them, the appeal window is closing and the cash is gone.
How dataface.ai helps
Recover revenue sooner and bring days in A/R down.
No training course, no dashboard backlog, no data project first. Just the answers people have been waiting for.
No SQL, no dashboard request, no training course
Type the question the way you would ask a colleague. dataface.ai finds the right data, works out the answer, and replies with the number and a chart. Ask the follow-up straight away.
Which payers have the highest preventable denial rate this quarter?
Numbers you can put in front of leadership
When a question could mean two things, it shows the options and asks which you meant, instead of quietly picking one. Every answer shows the steps it took to get there.
"Denied coverage" could mean the denial category, the denial reason, or a prior authorisation outcome. Which one?
The right picture for the answer, automatically
Trends come back as line charts, comparisons as bars, a single figure as a headline number. Sort, switch views, and take it straight into the meeting.

Most analytics tools start by copying your data somewhere new: a project to build it, and one more place to protect. dataface.ai asks your existing systems directly.
No data warehouse to fund. No pipeline project to wait for. No second copy of your tables for your security team to worry about.
Built for healthcare, banking, and every business whose data is not allowed to wander. Your security team keeps control, and nobody has to make an exception for us.
Your databases, business apps, cloud storage, and the spreadsheets in between. Nothing gets moved or rebuilt to start asking questions of them.
Postgres, MySQL, Oracle, SQL Server
Amazon S3, Azure, Google Cloud
CSV, Excel, JSON, and more
Kafka and real-time feeds
Salesforce, Stripe, Zendesk, any API

Legacy BI taxes every person who logs in. Warehouse-native AI meters every question you ask. dataface.ai does neither.

Ask anything, as often as your team needs. No per-question charge, ever.

Metered on every message, before the warehouse compute, storage, and ETL it runs on.
We don't put a meter on curiosity. One platform fee, your team asks freely, and only the answer ever leaves your data.

dataface.ai is on-source conversational analytics. Ask a question in plain English, and it generates read-only SQL from your schema metadata and runs it on the systems you already own. No warehouse copy, no pipeline.
dataface.ai reads your schema and a few example values per column, generates read-only SQL, and executes it on the source system itself. Your tables are never copied: no pipeline, no warehouse copy, no second place to secure.
By default the model sees your catalog: table names, column names, types, and a few example values per column. It never receives your tables, and it only sees query results if a user turns on AI analysis.
Generated SQL is SELECT-only. INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE and DDL are blocked, queries are parameterized against injection, and every request passes both a workspace gate and a datasource gate.
Yes. Enterprise agreements cover dedicated, VPC, and on-premise deployment, with edge execution on your own infrastructure at a reduced credit rate.
An annual platform fee plus execution credits. Users are unlimited, because charging per seat would tax the exact behaviour the product exists to create.
Roughly 80% lower analytics cost by removing pipelines, warehouse storage and duplicate copies, and around 40% higher operational efficiency because teams self-serve answers instead of queueing for analysts.
It asks. When a question has no clean mapping, dataface.ai shows the candidate columns it can actually see and lets a human choose, rather than guessing and returning a confident wrong number.
Ten databases and warehouses are live, including PostgreSQL, MySQL, Oracle, SQL Server, MongoDB, Snowflake, BigQuery, Teradata, Cassandra and Amazon S3, alongside API connectors and direct file upload.
Three layers: refuse to guess at question time, record every model call in an append-only ledger, and score releases against golden question sets in a standalone evaluation service.
Separate workspaces per team, project or client, and every query passes both a workspace gate and a per-datasource permission gate before it runs.
Regulated, data-heavy operations: healthcare and revenue cycle, financial services, aviation, retail and e-commerce, and supply chain, with AI tuned for those domains rather than generic.
Connect a source, ask a question, get an insight. A formal evaluation runs as a scoped pilot of eight to twelve weeks against one governed use case with your own data.
