What we checked ourselves
Not copied from the project's own blurb. These are things we opened and verified, with the date.
- 8 Sept 2026We checked that the link to the project still resolves.
- 14 Aug 2026We read the licence text itself (LICENSE). No unusual restrictions were stated.
- 1 Sept 2026We read the project's own documentation and found no sign that development has stopped.

Counted from our own checks: every tool we list is examined against the same criteria.
What it does
Hands your dataset to several specialised agents that explore it, form hypotheses, produce visualisations and write up findings, with the stages separated so the reasoning is followable rather than one opaque answer. Treat every result as a draft: misread aggregation conditions, ignored outliers and correlation stated as causation are routine failure modes. Your data reaches whichever model you configure. MIT.

DATAGEN FAQ
- Is DATAGEN free?
- DATAGEN itself is free, but it needs an API key for an external AI service. That service charges separately, though some have a free tier.
- Do I need to install anything or write code to use DATAGEN?
- It needs the command line. If you are not comfortable typing commands, expect to get stuck during setup.
- Does DATAGEN work on a phone?
- No. It needs a computer.
- Can I use DATAGEN commercially?
- The licence is MIT, which permits commercial use. Conditions such as keeping the copyright notice still apply, so read the licence text before shipping it inside something.
