Vanna

Open-source SQL agent for natural-language data queries

Vanna is an open-source SQL agent from Vanna AI that lets people query a company's systems of record in natural language. It supports multi-database, multi-turn conversations and access control. The framework works with any LLM provider and database; the site names Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini and Ollama among the models, and SQLite, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Snowflake and BigQuery among the databases. It installs with pip and can be self-hosted, or run through Vanna Cloud. Optional hosted admin features include observability, agent memory in a hosted vector database, secure file storage, audit logs and data retention. An Enterprise offering adds on-premises deployment support, SAML SSO and an Admin API.
