MotherDuck is a serverless cloud data warehouse built on DuckDB for data teams, app developers, and AI agents. Hypertenancy gives each user, customer, or agent an isolated DuckDB instance, called a Duckling. Teams can share databases through read-only objects that let recipients query data without exporting files or making another copy. The MotherDuck MCP Server enables AI agents to inspect catalogs, run SQL, read Guides, create Dives, and manage Flights. Flights are scheduled Python pipelines that run inside MotherDuck; Dives are interactive visualizations that users can filter, drill into, share, or embed in an app. Listed integrations include dbt, Airflow, Fivetran, Hex, Tableau, and Omni. Access is through web and API, with SQL notebooks, team query sharing, and AI query assistance.
