MCP.Pizza Chef: metabase

Helps you connect your AI assistant to Metabase, an open-source tool that lets anyone ask questions about company data without writing code. Once it is set up, you can ask about sales, customers, or any numbers your business tracks, and get back plain answers, charts, and dashboards. Metabase runs on its own server, either one you host yourself or through Metabase Cloud, so getting it connected takes some initial technical setup.

Get started

The easiest way to get started with Metabase is to sign up for a free trial of Metabase Cloud.

You get expert support, backups, upgrades, an SMTP server, SSL certificate, SoC2 Type 2 security auditing, and more (plus your money goes toward improving a major open-source project). Check out our quick overview of cloud vs self-hosting. If you need to, you can always switch to self-hosting Metabase at any time (or vice versa).

Key Features

metabase FAQ

Can I use this to ask questions about my sales data?
Yes — once your AI assistant is connected to Metabase, you can ask plain-English questions like "What were my top-selling products last month?" and get back an answer along with a chart.
Can I use this to build a dashboard without hiring a developer?
Yes — after Metabase is set up, anyone on your team can create dashboards and charts by asking questions or clicking through menus, with no developer needed for everyday use.
Do I need to know SQL or coding to use this?
No — Metabase is designed so people without any coding or database background can ask questions and get answers from their data, though a SQL option exists for advanced users.
Which apps can I connect this to?
Metabase can connect with AI assistants such as Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini that support the Model Context Protocol, letting them read and analyze your business data on your behalf.
Do I need an account or an API key?
You do not need an API key to use the open-source version, but you do need to set up and run your own Metabase server, or sign up for Metabase Cloud, before you can connect it.
How hard is it to set up?
Setting up Metabase takes some technical work, such as installing the software on a server or running it with Docker, so it helps to have a developer or technical teammate handle the initial setup.
Can I get notified when my numbers change?
Yes — you can set up alerts that notify you by email, chat, or another tool whenever a number crosses a threshold you choose.
Is my data safe if I connect my AI assistant to it?
Metabase runs on infrastructure you control, or on Metabase Cloud if you choose that option, so your data stays in your own database rather than being sent to an outside company.
