SQL Query Generation from Plain English
Analytics engineers describe data needs in natural language: 'Show me all users who signed up last month and spent over $100.' Studio24's SQL generator outputs production-ready queries with JOINs, WHERE clauses, and aggregations. Review and test before deploying.
Regex Without the Headache
Stop Googling regex patterns. Describe what you need: 'Match email addresses' or 'Extract phone numbers from text.' AI generates the expression plus plain-English explanations so your team can maintain the logic later.
Python Script Automation
Generate scripts for web scraping, file management, API orchestration, and data cleaning. Include dependency notes and usage examples. This accelerates prototyping—test ideas before investing full engineering cycles.
Documentation at Scale
Convert code into README sections, API docs, and onboarding guides. Maintain documentation without manual writing. This is especially valuable for internal tools and knowledge transfer.
