Overview

PandasAI is a Python library that leverages large language models (LLMs) for conversational data analysis, enabling users to interact with databases and datalakes in natural language.

Install

pip install pandas-ai

README

PandasAI is a Python library that makes it easy to ask questions to your data in natural language. It helps non-technical users to interact with their data in a more natural way, and it helps technical users to save time, and effort when working with data.

🔧 Getting started

You can find the full documentation for PandasAI here.

📚 Using the library

Python Requirements

Python version 3.8+ <=3.11

📦 Installation

You can install the PandasAI library using pip or poetry.

With pip:

pip install pandasai
pip install pandasai-litellm

With poetry:

poetry add pandasai
poetry add pandasai-litellm

💻 Usage

Ask questions

import pandasai as pai
from pandasai_litellm.litellm import LiteLLM

# Initialize LiteLLM with your OpenAI model
llm = LiteLLM(model="gpt-4.1-mini", api_key="YOUR_OPENAI_API_KEY")

# Configure PandasAI to use this LLM
pai.config.set({
    "llm": llm
})

# Load your data
df = pai.read_csv("data/companies.csv")

response = df.chat("What is the average revenue by region?")
print(response)

Or you can ask more complex questions:

df.chat(
    "What is the total sales for the top 3 countries by sales?"
)
The total sales for the top 3 countries by sales is 16500.

Visualize charts

You can also ask PandasAI to generate charts for you:

df.chat(
    "Plot the histogram of countries showing for each one the gdp. Use different colors for each bar",
)

Multiple DataFrames

You can also pass in multiple dataframes to PandasAI and ask questions relating them.

import pandasai as pai
from pandasai_litellm.litellm import LiteLLM

# Initialize LiteLLM with your OpenAI model
llm = LiteLLM(model="gpt-4.1-mini", api_key="YOUR_OPENAI_API_KEY")

# Configure PandasAI to use this LLM
pai.config.set({
    "llm": llm
})

employees_data = {
    'EmployeeID': [1, 2, 3, 4, 5],
    'Name': ['John', 'Emma', 'Liam', 'Olivia', 'William'],
    'Department': ['HR', 'Sales', 'IT', 'Marketing', 'Finance']
}

salaries_data = {
    'EmployeeID': [1, 2, 3, 4, 5],
    'Salary': [5000, 6000, 4500, 7000, 5500]
}

employees_df = pai.DataFrame(employees_data)
salaries_df = pai.DataFrame(salaries_data)


pai.chat("Who gets paid the most?", employees_df, salaries_df)
Olivia gets paid the most.

Docker Sandbox

You can run PandasAI in a Docker sandbox, providing a secure, isolated environment to execute code safely and mitigate the risk of malicious attacks.

Python Requirements
pip install "pandasai-docker"
Usage
import pandasai as pai
from pandasai_docker import DockerSandbox
from pandasai_litellm.litellm import LiteLLM

# Initialize LiteLLM with your OpenAI model
llm = LiteLLM(model="gpt-4.1-mini", api_key="YOUR_OPENAI_API_KEY")

# Configure PandasAI to use this LLM
pai.config.set({
    "llm": llm
})

# Initialize the sandbox
sandbox = DockerSandbox()
sandbox.start()

employees_data = {
    'EmployeeID': [1, 2, 3, 4, 5],
    'Name': ['John', 'Emma', 'Liam', 'Olivia', 'William'],
    'Department': ['HR', 'Sales', 'IT', 'Marketing', 'Finance']
}

salaries_data = {
    'EmployeeID': [1, 2, 3, 4, 5],
    'Salary': [5000, 6000, 4500, 7000, 5500]
}

employees_df = pai.DataFrame(employees_data)
salaries_df = pai.DataFrame(salaries_data)

pai.chat("Who gets paid the most?", employees_df, salaries_df, sandbox=sandbox)

# Don't forget to stop the sandbox when done
sandbox.stop()
Olivia gets paid the most.
