Introducing pg_ai_query: AI-Powered SQL Generation and Query Analysis for PostgreSQL
Announcing pg_ai_query, a PostgreSQL extension enabling AI-powered SQL generation, query analysis, and performance recommendations for developers.
On November 23, 2025, Sachin Beniwal (benodiwal) announced the release of pg_ai_query — a groundbreaking PostgreSQL extension that integrates AI-powered query development directly into your Postgres environment.
This open-source extension is designed to significantly enhance developer productivity by allowing you to:
- Generate SQL from natural language: Simply describe what you need, for example,
SELECT generate_query('list customers who have not placed an order in the last 90 days'); - Analyze query performance: Utilize AI-interpreted
EXPLAIN ANALYZEresults for deeper insights. - Receive optimization recommendations: Get intelligent suggestions for indexing and query rewrites.
- Leverage schema-aware intelligence: Benefit from secure introspection for contextually relevant query assistance.
pg_ai_query aims to empower developers to write and tune SQL queries more rapidly, eliminating the need to switch between different tools and accelerating iteration cycles for complex workloads.
