Yes, a mix of 1 & 2 possibly -- am trying not to think too much about the implementation at this stage tbh.

Problem statement remains that every major SaaS app has an API available - while that's good, an API is still an engineer's tool. These apps can't really expose SQL on the go on their apps given a. multi-tenant architectures b. transactional/nosql databases used.

However, an ideal solution does seem like a mix of 1&2 in my mind. An easy to use SDK (?) to make any SaaS app have the capabilities of Stripe Sigma.

Before you commit to SQL, you might want to look at an implementation based on GraphQL, particularly if your audience is slightly less technical.

Bigger set up costs, but a little easier to work with in the end.
