Connect any LLM to any data source with centralized context management (instructions, dbt, code, docs, BI metadata) and full observability and governance.
Let users run analysis, build beautiful dashboards, or schedule reports — all executed through an agentic analytics-oriented loop.
Bag of words is an open-source AI data layer — connect any LLM to any data source with centralized context management, trust, observability, and control.
-
Chat with any data source
Ask questions in web, Slack, or else. Create charts, tables, and full beautiful reports/dashboards by chatting with your data—powered by an agentic loop for tool use, reflection, and reasoning.
-
Context-aware & customizable
Define terms, tables, KPIs, rules and instructions. Ingest from dbt, Tableau, code, AGENTS.md, and have AI continiously maintain and monitor.
-
Any LLM, any data
Connect multiple data sources: Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift, Postgres, dbt, Tableau, and more — then pair with the LLM of your choice (OpenAI, Anthropic, or local models). Swap models/data sources without breaking workflows.
-
Transparency, trust & deployment
Track every AI decision, trace, and feedback. Analyze quality and usage in the console. Deploy fully in your VPC with Docker/Compose, VMs, or Kubernetes. Enterprise-ready with RBAC, SSO (OIDC), audit logs, SMTP.
