Connect to 30+ enterprise databases and query them naturally. No complex SQL required, no separate BI tools needed. Your data lives where it is, secure and accessible.
Most organizations store critical data in databases: customer information in PostgreSQL, sales data in MySQL, analytics in Snowflake, operational metrics in MongoDB. This data holds the answers to important questions, but accessing it usually requires technical expertise.
You either need to know SQL, wait for a data analyst to run queries for you, or export data to spreadsheets and lose the real-time connection.
Dvina changes this by connecting directly to your databases and letting you query them in plain language, right alongside your other work.

How It Works
Secure connection
Connect your database to Dvina with read-only credentials. Your data never leaves your infrastructure. Dvina acts as a secure query interface, not a data warehouse.
Plain language queries
Instead of writing SQL, ask questions in natural language:
- "How many new customers signed up last month?"
- "Show me total sales by region for Q4"
- "Which products have the highest return rates?"
Semantic layer intelligence
Dvina builds an understanding of your database structure: table relationships, field meanings, common patterns, and business logic. This semantic layer translates your natural language questions into optimized data operations.
Reliable, programmatic results
Mathematical calculations, aggregations, and data transformations are executed programmatically by the database engine, not by AI. This ensures 100% accuracy for counts, sums, averages, and all numerical operations. You can trust the numbers.
Real-time results
Results appear instantly, always showing current data from your database. No stale exports, no outdated snapshots.
Context awareness
Ask follow-up questions based on previous results. "Now show me just the European regions" or "Break that down by product category." Dvina maintains context across your conversation.
Real-World Example: Small Business Owner
Lisa runs an e-commerce store with 50,000 customers and a PostgreSQL database tracking orders, inventory, and customer data. She's not a developer but needs to make data-driven decisions daily.
Without Dvina:
Lisa wants to know which products are selling best in the last 30 days.
- Emails her developer: "Can you run a report on top products?"
- Developer adds request to backlog
- Three days later, receives a CSV file
- Opens in Excel, tries to make sense of the data
- Realizes she needs additional filters (by region, by customer type)
- Emails developer again
- Waits another two days
- By the time she gets answers, the data is already outdated
With Dvina:
- Opens Dvina, asks: "Show me best-selling products in the last 30 days"
- Results appear in 3 seconds as a formatted table with current data
- Asks follow-up: "Filter that to show only California customers"
- New results appear instantly
- Asks: "Now show me profit margins for these products"
- Creates a chart and bookmarks it for future reference
- Chart automatically updates with latest data every time she views it
Total time: 5 minutes. Real-time insights. Reliable calculations. No waiting. No technical skills required.
Real-World Example: Sales Manager
Carlos manages a sales team and needs to track performance metrics across multiple regions. His company uses Snowflake to store sales data from their CRM.
Without Dvina:
Every Monday, Carlos prepares for the weekly sales meeting:
- Opens Snowflake web console
- Copies complex SQL query from saved file
- Modifies dates manually (often makes mistakes)
- Runs query, exports CSV
- Opens Google Sheets, imports data
- Manually formats tables, creates charts
- Copies charts into presentation
- Process takes 45 minutes
- Next week, has to repeat everything because data is static
With Dvina:
- Asks: "Show me last week's sales by region and rep"
- Results appear with automatic formatting and accurate totals
- Asks: "Compare this to the same week last quarter"
- Comparison table generates automatically with reliable percentage calculations
- Bookmarks these insights
- Creates a dashboard combining bookmarked insights
- Dashboard refreshes automatically with latest data every time he opens it
- Shares dashboard link with team
Total time: 8 minutes for initial setup. Every subsequent week: 30 seconds to open the live dashboard with current, accurate data.
Plain Language to Insights
Dvina uses its own semantic layer to understand your database structure and translate natural questions into insights:
You ask:
"How many active users do we have in each country?"
Dvina's semantic layer:
- Understands your database schema and relationships
- Identifies the relevant tables and fields
- Applies appropriate filters and groupings
- Executes programmatic counting (not AI estimation)
You get:
Formatted results showing exact active user counts by country, with 100% accurate numbers generated by your database engine.
You ask:
"Show me average order value by month for this year"
Dvina handles:
- Locating order and transaction data across your schema
- Calculating averages programmatically using database functions
- Grouping by time periods with precise date handling
- Formatting results for easy interpretation
The technical complexity happens behind the scenes. Mathematical operations are handled by your database for reliability. You just ask questions and get trustworthy answers.
Bookmarks and Live Dashboards
Save insights you need regularly
When you create a useful chart, report, or analysis, bookmark it. Bookmarked insights are saved queries that run fresh each time you view them.
Always current, always accurate
Unlike exported reports that go stale immediately, bookmarked insights pull live data from your database every time you access them. You always see the most current information with reliable calculations.
Build custom dashboards
Combine multiple bookmarked insights into unified dashboards. Sales metrics, customer analytics, operational KPIs, all in one view that updates automatically.
Share live dashboards
Share dashboard links with team members. They see real-time data with accurate numbers without needing database access or technical knowledge.
No manual refresh needed
Traditional BI tools require manual refresh or scheduled ETL jobs. Dvina dashboards query your database in real-time, ensuring you always see current data with programmatic precision.
Example: Executive Dashboard
A CEO creates a dashboard with:
- Monthly revenue trends (bookmarked chart with exact figures)
- Customer acquisition costs (bookmarked calculation using programmatic math)
- Top performing products (bookmarked table with precise counts)
- Regional sales comparison (bookmarked visualization with accurate percentages)
Every morning, opening this dashboard shows updated numbers from last night's transactions. All calculations are reliable and mathematically precise. No manual updates, no data engineer maintaining ETL pipelines, no stale reports, no AI guesswork on numbers.
No Data Migration, No ETL
Your data stays where it is
Dvina doesn't copy your database contents to a separate warehouse. All queries run directly against your existing infrastructure.
No ETL pipelines
Traditional business intelligence requires extracting data, transforming it, and loading it into a separate system. This creates delays, maintenance overhead, and data staleness.
Dvina eliminates this entirely. Query your production database, data warehouse, or analytics engine directly.
No sync delays
Because there's no data copying, there are no sync schedules or replication lag. Insights reflect your database's current state, not a snapshot from hours or days ago.
Reduced infrastructure costs
You don't need separate data warehouses, ETL tools, or duplicate storage for analytics. Use your existing database infrastructure.
Less maintenance burden
No ETL pipelines to monitor, no sync jobs to debug, no duplicate data to manage. One source of truth: your database.
Efficient Query Execution
Optimized performance
Dvina's semantic layer generates efficient queries that minimize database load. Complex questions are broken down into optimized operations.
Programmatic calculations
All mathematical operations (COUNT, SUM, AVG, percentages, ratios) are executed by your database engine using standard SQL functions. This guarantees accuracy and reliability, not AI estimation.
Read-only access
Dvina connects with read-only credentials. It can never modify, delete, or corrupt your data, ensuring your production systems remain safe.
Query caching
Frequently accessed data is intelligently cached to reduce database load without sacrificing data freshness or calculation accuracy.
Resource awareness
Dvina monitors query performance and adjusts execution strategies to avoid overwhelming your database infrastructure.
Advanced Capabilities
Complex analysis made simple
Ask questions that would normally require complex multi-table operations, aggregations, and calculations. Dvina's semantic layer handles the complexity while databases handle the math.
"Show me customers who ordered more than $1000 last month but haven't ordered anything this month"
Data visualization
Results automatically render as charts when appropriate. Bar charts for comparisons, line charts for trends, pie charts for distributions, all with accurate, programmatic calculations.
Custom calculations
Create derived metrics without touching the database. Calculate growth rates, moving averages, or custom KPIs on the fly with reliable mathematical operations.
Export and share
Download results as CSV, Excel, or PDF. Share live dashboards with team members. Integrate insights into reports or presentations.
Scheduled delivery
Set up dashboards to deliver automatically via email or Slack. Daily sales reports, weekly metrics, monthly summaries, all with fresh data and accurate calculations.
Privacy and Security
Your data never leaves your infrastructure
Dvina queries your database and displays results. The underlying data remains in your secure environment.
Encrypted connections
All database connections use industry-standard encryption (TLS/SSL) to protect data in transit.
Access control
Control which team members can query which databases. Different users can have different permission levels.
Audit logs
