Questions

About Evolve AI.

What is Evolve AI?

Evolve AI is a dual-edition Forward-Deployed Engineers (FDE) delivery studio and AI coding assistant built by Evolve Mind Solutions. It is available as a Free Community Edition on the VS Code Marketplace (MIT licence), and as a Paid Enterprise Edition distributed as a standalone portable desktop executable (.exe). It provides interactive 2D Technical ERD & 3D Celestial schema topology, column-to-column relational linking, live database introspection across 7 engines, automated dbt/PySpark model generation, typed TypeScript/Python client SDK scaffolding, Data Analysis & Executive Reporting Studio, and automated client handover runbooks.

Is Evolve AI free?

The VS Code extension on the Marketplace is completely free to use under the MIT licence as the Community Edition. It includes core AI chat across 9 providers, local models (Ollama, Gemma 4), and FDE delivery stages 1 through 4. For enterprise engineering teams needing zero-install standalone executables, interactive 2D Technical ERD & column-level relational linking, visual Join Inspector, Data Analysis & Executive Reporting Studio, automated Oracle/T-SQL transpilation, Row-Level Security generation, Reverse ETL workers, Multi-Cloud DevOps scaffolding (Terraform, Kubernetes, CI/CD), PII sanitization, SIEM audit logging, and hardware-bound Ed25519 offline licensing, we offer the paid Evolve AI Enterprise Edition (available as a standalone desktop app or corporate site license).

What is the difference between the Free Community Edition and Paid Enterprise Edition?

The Free Community Edition provides the core VS Code extension with AI chat across 9 providers, 18 workspace plugins, and FDE Stages 1–4 (DB Introspection, Schema Mapping, Client SDK, Runbook Docs). The Paid Enterprise Edition adds: (1) Zero-installation standalone portable desktop app (.exe) requiring no VS Code or admin rights; (2) Interactive 2D Technical ERD & 3D Celestial schema topology with exact cubic bezier column-to-column socket pins, canvas line hit-testing, table & link isolation mode with blueprint ghost dimming, and dedicated Relationship Deep-Dive & Join Inspector with auto-generated ANSI SQL; (3) Universal live database introspection modal for 7 database engines (PostgreSQL, Snowflake, BigQuery, MySQL, SQLite, Oracle, SQL Server) with 1-click config detection and live/demo toggle; (4) Data Analysis & Executive Reporting Studio with sandboxed HTML dashboard canvas, dynamic KPI ribbons, and print/PDF stylesheets; (5) Phase 5 Enterprise Suite with automated Oracle and T-SQL to Snowflake/BigQuery transpiler, automated Row-Level Security (RLS) generator, Reverse ETL sync workers, and synthetic data generator; (6) Phase 6 DevOps Hub with multi-cloud Terraform HCL, GPU Kubernetes manifests, Docker Compose, and CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Bitbucket, Azure DevOps); (7) Enterprise compliance with PII sanitization, SIEM audit forwarding (Splunk, Datadog, Sentinel), and Great Expectations/Soda Core data quality drift gates; (8) Databricks Lakehouse Unity Catalog lineage and query cost analysis; and (9) 100% air-gapped Ed25519 hardware-bound cryptographic licensing with priority commercial SLA support.

How does the Visual Schema Topology & 2D Technical ERD work in Evolve AI Enterprise?

Evolve AI Enterprise features a dual-topology visualizer: engineers can switch seamlessly between a panoramic 3D Celestial Orbit and a crisp, high-density 2D Technical ERD. In 2D mode, relationships are rendered as cubic bezier curves connecting exact primary key and foreign key socket pins on table headers and columns, complete with interactive hover elevation. Clicking any connection line triggers canvas hit-testing, isolating the connected tables while dimming unrelated models in blueprint ghost mode. The built-in Relationship Deep-Dive & Join Inspector displays a side-by-side column bridge, join cardinality (1:1, 1:N, N:M), and auto-generates ANSI SQL join queries with 1-click clipboard copy.

What is the Data Analysis & Executive Reporting Studio?

The Executive Reporting Studio in Evolve AI Enterprise enables forward-deployed engineers and data leads to transform raw datasets (CSV, Excel, Parquet, or SQL query results) into interactive executive briefings. It features sandboxed iframe previews for live interactive HTML charts and dashboard widgets, dynamic KPI summary ribbons, and clean print/PDF export formatting designed for client handovers and executive presentations.

Why should our company purchase the Standalone Desktop Edition?

Corporate data teams, banks, and consultancies choose the Standalone Desktop Edition because: (1) Zero IT friction: runs as a self-contained portable .exe without requiring administrator rights, VS Code installation, or third-party extensions; (2) Interactive 2D ERD & Schema Intelligence: column-level relational linking, canvas line hit-testing, and automated ANSI SQL join inspection eliminate architectural guesswork; (3) Air-gapped compliance: 100% offline Ed25519 cryptographic licensing with zero telemetry and zero external phone-home calls, complying with strict banking data sovereignty; (4) Massive migration ROI: automated transpilation from legacy Oracle and SQL Server to modern Snowflake and BigQuery saves hundreds of engineering hours per project; (5) Complete delivery lifecycle: scaffolds everything from infrastructure (Terraform/Kubernetes) to security (RLS/PII masking) to executive reports and client runbooks in minutes; and (6) Dedicated commercial support with priority SLAs and custom dialect templates.

Which AI providers does Evolve AI support?

Nine. In the cloud: Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, OpenAI and OpenAI-compatible services (including Groq, Mistral, Together AI and LM Studio), GLM from Z.ai, and the Hugging Face Inference API. Running locally on your own hardware: Ollama, Google's Gemma 4, GLM/CodeGeeX, and Colibri. Enterprise Edition additionally supports private, on-premise model serving endpoints (vLLM, Triton Inference Server, Hugging Face TGI).

Can Evolve AI run without sending my code anywhere?

Yes, and this is a foundational design principle. Run it against Ollama, Gemma 4, CodeGeeX or Colibri and your code never leaves your machine. There is also an air-gapped mode with a strict network blocker, and a Zero-AI Offline Suite — SQL formatter, dataset profiler, dbt test generator, Cron and Regex workbench, Terraform and Docker security linters — that involves no model at all. In Enterprise Desktop Edition, cryptographic licensing is validated entirely offline using Ed25519 signatures, ensuring 100% data sovereignty.

What is the Forward-Deployed Engineers Delivery Studio?

It is an end-to-end delivery framework for engineers deploying data and AI solutions inside client environments. Stages 1–4 (available in Free Community and Enterprise) cover live DB introspection, foreign schema mapping to dbt, typed client SDK generation, and client handoff documentation. Stages 5 & 6 (exclusive to Paid Enterprise) add automated SQL transpilation (Oracle/T-SQL to Snowflake/BigQuery), automated Row-Level Security, Reverse ETL sync workers, and multi-cloud DevOps scaffolding (Terraform, Kubernetes, Docker, CI/CD).

Which data and cloud platforms does Evolve AI understand?

Eighteen plugins activate automatically from the files in your workspace, with no configuration. For data: dbt, Apache Airflow, Databricks with Unity Catalog, Jupyter, PyTorch and a data analysis and reporting plugin that builds charts and HTML reports from CSV, Excel and Parquet. For cloud: AWS, Google Cloud and Azure plugins that connect to your real accounts to list resources, run queries, browse storage and diagnose failed jobs. For infrastructure and application code: Terraform, Kubernetes, Docker, Django, FastAPI, pytest, Git and a security scanner.

Does Evolve AI work in Cursor or VSCodium?

Yes. The Free Community Edition requires VS Code 1.85 or later and works in VS Code and its forks, including Cursor and VSCodium. If your organisation restricts IDE extensions or developer environments, the Paid Enterprise Standalone Desktop Edition runs completely independently as a portable Windows application.

Where can I download the standalone desktop application?

A zero-installation portable desktop executable for Windows x64 is available directly from our dedicated download page at /products/evolve-ai/download/, which always serves the current release. It runs directly without requiring admin rights and includes Ed25519 offline license validation, an integrated terminal, workspace explorer, and full air-gapped security.

How does enterprise commercial licensing work?

The Enterprise Edition uses Ed25519 asymmetric cryptographic signatures tied to machine hardware fingerprints or organization seats. Licenses can be generated and renewed 100% offline without network calls. You can request a quote directly through our contact page or via the in-app Procurement Request Generator in the desktop app.
