Avanty

About Avanty

Avanty is a Chrome extension that adds an AI copilot to Metabase, the open-source business intelligence tool. It is a deliberately narrow product: rather than being a general text-to-SQL service, it lives inside the Metabase native query editor where analysts already work, and helps with the four things that actually consume time there — generating a query from a description, editing an existing query, explaining what a query does, and adding comments to a query so the next person does not have to re-derive its intent. That scoping is the value. A general SQL assistant has no idea what your Metabase collections contain or what the query you are currently editing looks like; an extension embedded in the editor does, so its suggestions land in context and can be accepted inline instead of being pasted between tabs. The typical beneficiary is a small data team supporting a company on self-hosted Metabase, where analysts write a lot of long, joined SQL by hand and inherit queries from colleagues who have since left. Avanty is in early access with a free entry path, and the vendor publishes documentation, an FAQ and a changelog. Because it is a browser extension, it works against both Metabase Cloud and self-hosted installations without server-side changes, which means an analyst can adopt it without filing a ticket against the platform team or waiting for an infrastructure review — usually the step that kills tool adoption inside a data organisation.
