AI for Amplitude.
Query your Amplitude event data in plain English. No SQL required.
Read-only · Flexible connection options
> How many users completed onboarding this week?Connect your Amplitude analytics data to AI for Database and get instant answers from your behavioral data. Ask questions about user journeys, conversion funnels, and product engagement – and get results backed by real queries, not approximations.
Amplitude captures every interaction in your digital product. AI for Database makes that data accessible to anyone who can describe what they want to know, without writing SQL or navigating Amplitude's chart builder.
What data you can query
Events
Every tracked user action – pageviews, button clicks, transactions, custom events
user_idevent_typeevent_timeevent_propertiesuser_propertiesplatformcountryUser Properties
User-level attributes that persist across sessions
user_idplansignup_datecompanyroledevice_typeSessions
Session-level data including duration, entry/exit events, and session IDs
session_iduser_idstart_timeduration_msevent_countMerged Identities
Maps multiple device/anonymous IDs to a single user for cross-device analysis

Chart builder is slow for ad-hoc questions
Building a new chart in Amplitude for every question takes time. Sometimes you just want a number.
Complex queries need SQL anyway
Amplitude's segmentation is powerful but limited. For multi-step funnels with custom logic, you end up exporting to SQL.
Cross-source analysis is manual
Amplitude knows behavior but not revenue details, support interactions, or backend metrics. Getting the full picture requires ETL work.
Event properties are hard to query
event_properties and user_properties are nested JSON. Querying specific properties in your warehouse requires verbose SQL.
How AI for Database helps
Instant behavioral analysis
Ask any question about user behavior and get an answer in seconds, not minutes of chart configuration.
> What are the top 10 most common user actions in the last 7 days, and how many unique users performed each?
Custom funnel analysis
Build funnels with custom logic that goes beyond Amplitude's built-in funnel chart.
> Show me the conversion rate from 'view_product' → 'add_to_cart' → 'checkout_complete' by platform (iOS vs Android) this month
Cohort comparison
Compare behavior across user segments without creating separate Amplitude cohorts.
> Compare the 30-day retention of users who completed onboarding in under 5 minutes vs those who took longer
Revenue attribution
Connect Amplitude behavior data to revenue outcomes.
> Which features are most used by users who upgraded to paid in the last 90 days? Show me the top 10 events by frequency.
Cross-device analysis
Leverage merge_ids for accurate cross-device user counts.
> How many truly unique users (after identity merging) were active last week?
Example queries
> How many users completed onboarding this week?
Counts DISTINCT user_id from events where event_type = 'onboarding_complete' in the last 7 days
> What's the most common first action after signup?
For each user, finds the first event after 'signup' event_type, then counts and ranks by frequency
> Show me the retention curve for the January cohort
Computes day-N activity rates for users whose first event was in January, out to 30 days
> Which platform has the highest conversion rate?
Groups funnel completion by platform field, calculates percentage, orders descending
