Tool
Metabase is an open-source business intelligence and analytics platform for querying and visualizing data from databases and warehouses. It provides a visual query builder, SQL access, interactive dashboards, reports, alerts, and a governed semantic layer of canonical tables and metrics.
Its AI features use the semantic layer to guide natural-language questions and expose the query behind each answer through Metabot or the Metabase MCP server. Metabase also offers APIs, a CLI, Slack connectivity, and an embedding SDK for placing dashboards and self-service analytics in other applications.
It can be self-hosted or deployed through Metabase Cloud, and supports permissions, single sign-on, multi-tenant data segregation, caching, configuration export, and embedded analytics.
