FAQ
Hawk AI value — questions
Is the ROI calculator based on your data?
No — it's a transparent, self-serve estimate you drive with your own numbers (team size, hours, hourly cost). It's meant to size the opportunity, not to promise a specific result. The percentage stats shown separately are customer-reported figures.
Do we need data scientists to get value?
No. Business users ask questions in plain language; analysts and engineers get a strong first-draft SQL against any schema. The value comes from removing the SQL bottleneck, not from adding specialist headcount.
How fast can we see value?
Because DBHawk is web-based and Hawk AI plugs into your existing access model, teams typically start self-serving queries within days of deployment — no client software to roll out.
