Show HN: Generate an entire mock database in seconds using AI

I built this simple CLI tool to generate a sample database based on a company description, including a data model and synthetic data.

The tool offers the option to write the generated database to a postgres/mysql connection, or alternatively store it as json.

I built this tool for local testing of a data analytics product I'm working on, but it could also be used for mocking in e2e tests for example. Would love to get some feedback!
