text2ql framework offers language-agnostic querying with deterministic accuracy

A new open-source Python framework called text2ql has been developed to improve natural language querying for databases. It addresses limitations such as exclusive targeting of SQL, reliance on LLM inference, and lack of runtime error signals. text2ql utilizes a language-agnostic Intermediate Representation (QueryIR) and a pluggable renderer architecture, offering both LLM-backed and deterministic modes. The deterministic mode achieves 100% execution accuracy with low latency and no API costs, while the LLM-backed mode shows strong performance on benchmarks like Spider and BIRD. AI

IMPACT Enhances database querying by offering a deterministic, LLM-free option with high accuracy and low latency.

    text2ql: Multi-Target Natural Language Querying via a Language-Agnostic Intermediate Representation

    arXiv:2609.02115v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Natural language interfaces to databases have traditionally suffered from three structural limitations: exclusive targeting of relational SQL, unconditional dependence on large language model (LLM) inference at query time, and abs…
