Organizations are increasingly interested in allowing external data scientists to explore their sensitive datasets. Due to the popularity of differential privacy, data owners want the data exploration to ensure provable privacy guarantees. However, current systems for differentially private query answering place an inordinate burden on the data analysts to understand differential privacy, manage their privacy budget and even implement new algorithms for noisy query answering. Moreover, current systems do not provide any guarantees to the data analyst on the quantity they care about, namely accuracy of query answers.
