Generate production-ready SQL queries from plain-language analytics tasks.
Many teams try to read retention directly from BI dashboards without validating cohort logic in SQL first. The result is unstable retention numbers that shift when filters, timezone, or event names change.
Use SQL Query AI to draft a consistent retention query and validate assumptions before publishing any KPI updates.

Run your current retention scenario in SQL Query AI, compare with dashboard output, and document every mismatch before leadership review.
