MindsDB is a popular open-source query engine for AI analytics, powering AI agents that need to answer questions directly from databases, data warehouses, and applications, with no ETL required.

What you can build with MindsDB Query Engine

How MindsDB works

MindsDB follows a simple workflow: Connect → Unify → Respond. At the center is an SQL-compatible data language with additional constructs for searching unstructured data, managing workflows (jobs/triggers), and building agents.

Connect

Universal data access: Give your agents federated access to 200+ live data sources (Postgres, MongoDB, Slack, files, and more).

Unify

Dynamic context engine: Fuse structured tables with vectorized data (text, PDFs, HTML) inside a Knowledge Base.

Respond

Autonomous reasoning: Deploy agents that blend and retrieve data points across your stack to produce grounded answers.

Setup

Users can install MindsDB via Docker, Docker Extension, or PyPI.

Here is how to pull and run MindsDB via Docker:

docker run --name mindsdb_container \
-e MINDSDB_APIS=http,mysql \
-p 47334:47334 -p 47335:47335 \
mindsdb/mindsdb:latest

Usage

Follow the quickstart guide to get started with MindsDB using our demo data.

Retrieve and analyze data from over 200 data sources in one SQL dialect. For AI agents, this means faster response time, better accuracy, and lower token consumption.

--use SQL to aggregate pipeline data from Salesforce 
SELECT SUM(ExpectedRevenue) AS open_pipeline
FROM salesforce.opportunities
WHERE close_date >= CURDATE()

--use the same dialect to retrieve even from a non-SQL database, like MondoDB
SELECT COUNT(*) AS negative_emails_last_30_days
FROM mongodb.support_tickets
WHERE sentiment = 'negative'
  AND created_at >= CURRENT_DATE - INTERVAL '30 days';

Create views and join data even from different types of data systems.

--join MongoDB and Salesforce data
CREATE VIEW risky_renewals AS (
SELECT *
FROM mongodb.support_tickets AS reviews
JOIN salesforce.opportunities AS deals
  ON reviews.customer_domain = deals.customer_domain
WHERE deals.type = "renewal"
  AND reviews.sentiment = "negative"
);
