LLMs are transforming data access with SQL automation
Salesteq
on November 1, 2024
Experimenting with LLMs for Full Automation of Data Retrieval
Our goal was simple: to make data access easier. We wanted users to retrieve data by simply asking questions. To achieve this, we tested various large language models (LLMs) like OpenAI, Mistral, Llama2, and Wizardcoder. We aimed to see how well each could turn natural language requests into SQL commands.
Benchmarking Methods and Key Findings
We tested both API-based and locally deployed models. Our focus was on how accurately each model could understand different data contexts and create SQL statements. We grouped the models by how they performed under specific conditions. Here’s a breakdown of what we found:
SQL Generation Benchmarks across LLMs
The chart illustrates performance across key test scenarios:
No Table Structure Provided: We asked the models to generate SQL without knowing the data structure.
With Table Definitions: We supplied table definitions to guide SQL creation.
With Sampled Queries and Table Definitions: The models received sample queries along with table details.
Each model’s performance in these categories gave us insights into strengths and trade-offs, helping us fine-tune our AI’s data interaction capabilities. Some models excelled with structured data setups, while others adapted well to iterative “pilot learning,” adjusting as they processed new information.
Benchmark Data Set
We used a curated subset of EDGAR records, a detailed dataset on corporate and individual financial disclosures. With data on around 100,000 companies, it offered a rich resource for testing how well each model handled complex data.
Building a Generative User Experience: Key Lessons
As we progressed, a few key insights emerged that shaped how we think about LLMs and generative AI for enterprise solutions:
LLMs and SQL Compatibility: Through benchmarking, we saw how effectively LLMs could translate user prompts into SQL commands. However, achieving reliable accuracy required continuous adjustments to ensure the AI could handle the diverse data structures typical in large-scale enterprise environments.
Adaptive Learning and Metadata: To make data access more intuitive, we needed the AI to autonomously generate metadata that makes data easily searchable. This step required the AI to learn dynamically from user behavior—a central principle in creating a generative system that could grow smarter over time.
Platform Architecture to Support Autonomy: This experience reinforced the importance of building a flexible architecture. Enabling AI to autonomously retrieve data and interpret user intent requires a platform that allows for real-time adaptation. This meant designing our system with evolutionary learning principles at its core.
Introducing Wingman SQL Assistant
These insights led to the creation of Wingman SQL Assistant, a tool that lets users interact with data by simply asking questions, without writing SQL. Currently demoed with a sample music database, Wingman allows users to get answers on metrics like top-selling tracks or customer purchasing behavior—all through natural language.

and see how it can transform the way you work with data. You can ask for SQL queries for a sample data base of a music collection. For example you could ask to give you all artists or all customers and their purchased songs.
Sharing Our Vision: A Collaborative Step Toward Generative AI
Our work on LLM-driven data retrieval is ongoing, but it’s taught us that the potential for generative AI in enterprise tech is enormous. We envision a future where AI can autonomously manage and interpret data, responding to user requests with accuracy and insight. By sharing these lessons, we hope to contribute to the broader AI community and spark discussions around best practices in data access automation.

Scaling from $0 to $5 million in annual recurring revenue (ARR) requires a systematic approach to growth. The good news? It can be done profitably by focusing on the right channels and strategies. Below, I’ll walk you through a step-by-step process, based on proven methods, using a combination of organic short-form content, influencer marketing, SEO, and paid ads.
Organic Short-form Content
In today’s social media landscape, follower count doesn’t matter. What really counts is engagement. Even a new account with the right content can go viral and outperform established influencers. The key is not to chase followers but to chase virality.
A great hack here is to create fresh accounts, find a face for them, and craft a viral video series. For example, if a famous person created a new/additional TikTok/X account today, their videos would immediately go viral, thanks to the algorithm pushing their content to their existing fanbase—even with zero followers. You can leverage the same approach for your brand.
Here’s the formula:
Find a face for your account.
Craft a viral video series —keep experimenting until you find a winning format.
Multiply accounts —once you find a viral series, create multiple accounts and start reposting and tweaking the same content.
For example, you could partner with a creator that has a big following. Even though you started with a brand-new account with this creator, you can achieve large numbers of impressions in the first month because the algorithm will push the content from the new account to the established followers. Once you find a viral series, you can tweak it slightly and repost multiple times a week.
Viral series examples:
A guy testing how many spaghetti sticks can hold his weight.
A guy drinking a cup of milk for every 1,000 followers he has.
A video series “POV: You have an essay due,” with minor variations, generated over 300 million views and more than half a million dollars in revenue.
Keep experimenting with video ideas across platforms like TikTok, X, Instagram, and YouTube Shorts or LinkedIn. Once you find a viral concept, post it across multiple accounts and languages, sponsor reposts on other pages, and turn it into paid ads. Rinse and repeat.
💡 B2B Tip: Leverage LinkedIn for these videos as well. Share content that speaks to professional challenges, industry insights, and expert interviews—these resonate well with decision-makers.
Influencer Marketing
When it comes to influencers, size doesn’t always matter. Smaller influencers with high engagement can provide incredible results at a fraction of the cost of larger names. Here’s how to tap into influencer marketing:
Find influencers: Look at which influencers your users follow on Instagram, TikTok, or X, and use “suggested accounts” feature to find similar ones.
Reach out to influencers: Direct messages (DMs) often result in higher response rates than emails. Be clear, concise, and make it clear that it’s a paid promotion.
Negotiate: Align incentives by splitting payment, with part based on performance (e.g., number of conversions). Never pay 100% upfront.
Customize content: Each influencer has a unique style. Tailor content to match their usual format to maintain high engagement. A good influencer partnership is worth far more than several unsuccessful ones.
Remember, influencer marketing is about trial and error—casting a wide net and then doubling down on what works.
💡 B2B Tip: Partner with industry experts or micro-influencers within your niche. Their trust and reputation in the field can create powerful content such as tutorials or product demos that resonate with professional audiences. Focus on performance-based partnerships, especially with niche influencers in your industry. Performance metrics in the B2B space can include lead generation, downloads of white papers, or registrations for webinars.
SEO
SEO is a long-term game but can provide exponential growth. Start SEO when you have enough understanding of your users. Here are some SEO hacks to help:
Take featured snippets: Use SEO tools to find keywords you already rank for and tweak your content to grab Google’s featured snippets by making the answer clear and concise.
Search for Viral content on Social Media: Use viral posts on X, TikTok or LinkeIn and turn them into your blog content.
Boost brand searches:Encourage users to search for your brand name, as brand searches boost your site’s credibility in Google’s eyes.
Add schema: Mark up pages with structured data to help search engines better understand your content.
SEO is an ongoing process, and while results may take time, they can compound into massive returns when done right.
💡 B2B Tip: Answer common industry questions or concerns in your content. Focus on questions decision-makers would ask, such as “What’s the best CRM for manufacturing companies?” or “How to reduce supply chain costs?”
Paid Ads
Only start running paid ads after you’ve experimented with influencer marketing and organic content. Why? Paid ads require data to work effectively, and you can get that data from organic channels first.
Here’s how to approach paid ads:
Use existing creatives: Repurpose high-performing content from influencer partnerships for paid ads.
Leverage customer feedback: Use comments from organic social posts to craft better ad copy.
Scale gradually: Once you have product-market fit (PMF) and a 3:1 LTV to CAC ratio, it’s safe to scale your ad spend. Ensure your landing page is optimized to convert traffic
Paid ads can be a powerful tool, but don’t rush into them. Focus on organic channels first, then use the insights gained from these channels to optimize your paid campaigns.
💡 B2B Tip: LinkedIn Ads are highly effective in the B2B world. Retarget key decision-makers who have engaged with your website or downloaded your content, delivering personalized ads that address their pain points.
Final Thoughts
Scaling to $5M ARR isn’t easy, but it’s achievable if you focus on continuous experimentation and iteration. For every growth channel, it’s about finding what works and doubling down. Start with organic content, experiment until something sticks, and once you find that viral spark, replicate it across platforms. Similarly, approach influencer marketing and paid ads with a data-driven mindset.
At every stage of growth, you’ll encounter new challenges, but the key is to stay focused, refine your processes, and hire the right people to help you scale.
