Product Updates: Deployment Options, Database Cloning, and Data Viz!

We’ve been very busy the last few weeks here at GibsonAI. Not only are we running the first-of-its-kind OneShot Hackathon (entries still accepted through Sunday!), but we have also been shipping features at ludicrous speed… That’s right, we’ve gone to plaid! Here’s some highlights:

Deployment Options

The most frequently requested feature and a fast-follow to our environments release in late April. We have now separated the deployment of your development database from your production database. This means that you can have a working schema in GibsonAI, a test version deployed to development, and a stable version of your schema deployed to production. Just like it should be!

Database Cloning

Sometimes you want to replicate a project verbatim, and the nature of any LLM is such that creating a verbatim schema from the same prompt usually does not happen. That’s why we’ve released Database cloning! Now with a simple sharing URL available in your settings, you can let any other GibsonAI user clone the schema you built, allowing you to effectively fork projects or include them in repositories. Try it out by cloning our OneShot Hackathon's simple schema! Stay tuned for CLI tools to clone databases automatically.

Data Access With SQL in the CLI

Another result of consistent and persistent feedback from our users (yes, we ARE listening on Discord!). Using open source tools from Harlequin, we’ve bundled a SQL runner with our CLI tool. Now you can point the Gibson CLI at one of your databases and query it to see your data in your terminal. We’ll be building this into our UI and would love to hear your thoughts on what we ought to include.

Odds and Ends

As always, we have spent time tuning our AI to continue being the absolute best SQL building agent available. We added a query endpoint to our APIs so you can send raw SQL, we shored up our UI and improved the data modeling, and we made project deployments available from our CLI. Told you we’ve been busy!

Sneak Peek: Import Your Schema

Our next project to tackle is allowing you to import a SQL schema of your very own into a new GibsonAI project, allowing you to ask GibsonAI to lend a hand in optimizing your existing database. 

Have a feature you just can't wait for? Let us know, we'll build it!
