Auto-Analyst is a modular open-source system for automating data science work, from cleaning and statistical analysis through modelling to visualisation, driven by agents you point at your own provider key. It is self-hosted, which matters more than usual here: the data an analysis agent touches is typically the organisation's own, so keeping both the dataset and the credential inside your deployment is the point. MIT.
Why this trust score (79/100)
Trust measures how the tool treats your API key and how much of that has been verified. It contains no popularity signal.
- Key Safety 21/25: The key lives in a deployment you run yourself.
- Request Routing 17/20: Requests go straight from you to the AI provider.
- Transparency 20/20: Source is public under MIT, so anyone can check how the key is handled.
- Privacy 10/15: Can be self-hosted, so the data path stays inside infrastructure you control.
- Maintenance 10/10: Actively developed, with commits within the last three months.
- Verification Confidence 1/10: Compiled from public documentation by an AI-assisted pass, not independently confirmed.

How your API key is handled
You self-host the app, so your API key lives in your own deployment. Requests are sent directly to the AI provider. Because it can be self-hosted, your key never has to touch a third-party backend.
Setup
Deploy it (Docker/compose), add your provider API key in the admin or environment config, then select models.
