About MindsDB

MindsDB is an open-source AI layer for databases that enables developers and data analysts to query machine learning models, large language models, and time-series forecasts using standard SQL syntax directly within their existing database infrastructure. By treating AI models as virtual tables, MindsDB allows teams to run predictions, generate text, classify records, and detect anomalies with simple SELECT statements—without moving data to a separate ML platform. It connects to over 130 data sources including PostgreSQL, MySQL, Snowflake, MongoDB, and Kafka, making AI predictions available wherever data lives. MindsDB's fine-tuning capabilities allow users to customize LLMs on their own database tables, creating domain-specific AI models with SQL commands. Over 40,000 developers use MindsDB to embed AI capabilities into data applications without requiring MLOps expertise.
