Klaviyo does this too. Instead of building a segment you have to ask AI to do it, which it then just goes and partially does. I just want to filter for everyone where postcode starts with a specific number.

It makes me think even visual builder tools were a mistake because it's how we got here. Everyone should just be forced to learn SQL

    My favorite web service right now is Metabase. Open source, written in lisp (clojure), and it has a visual builder that literally shows you the SQL and you can convert any visual query to SQL with one click.

    I self host it and have gotten several local businesses to use it instead of their crap paid systems. It'll run on a laptop no problem.
