Analytics tool for low/no tech employees?

Hi, I'm working as a data scientist and I have noticed that a lot of co-workers will ask me rudimentary data questions that they could easily solve themselves if they knew basic SQL. The problem is that they seldom have the time or interest to actually learn which in effect hampers their own productivity since they have to wait for me to get back to them, which can take hours and sometimes days.

I've been thinking about putting together a simple API that allows the user to create simple dashboards/reports from a companies data that would simulate simple SQL queries without having to learn SQL. The products out there I have seen are aimed toward other data analysts/scientists and have a pretty high learning curve. My aim is to make something for non-data/tech employees that could boost their productivity. While I think this could be a good idea, I also think that their must exist something like this already, but I haven't found it. It might also be a fool's game since it is hard to standardise queries across different data sets.

Any input would be appreciated!
