    Great question! You don’t have to send anything to a third party - exporting SQL scripts tailored to a specific dialect is optional. By default, we offer a generic SQL export, and only when you need precise, dialect-specific scripts does AI come into play. In the self-hosted version, you’d provide your own OpenAI token, so data stays entirely in your control. Hope that clears it up!
