We are excited to announce the release of Duckle, the local-first data studio featuring a built-in AI assistant.

Duckle is an open-source desktop ETL/ELT studio that enables users to easily create data pipelines. Users can simply drag a pipeline onto the canvas, describe their requirements in plain English to Duckie, the on-device AI assistant, and execute tasks at native speed using DuckDB.

Key features include: - 290+ connectors - 50+ transforms - A built-in scheduler - A chat assistant that operates entirely on your CPU - 60 UI Languages - Git Integration

Duckle is delivered as a compact ~30 MB desktop application, ensuring no reliance on cloud services, servers, or vendor lock-in.
