Dataki for Claude
Connect Claude to your database
Ask Claude about your business and get the answer as a chart, right in the chat. Add Dataki as a custom connector, sign in once, and Claude queries every source you have connected: it writes the SQL, Dataki runs it read-only, and your database password never reaches Claude.

Ask it something, in a new chat

What data can you see in Dataki?. Use a new chat: a conversation keeps the tools it started with.
Using the Claude desktop app? Install Dataki as an extension
Dataki's connect page can download a desktop extension: one file with a key for you already in it, so there is no sign-in. Open the file and Claude shows Dataki; click Install. The extension runs in the desktop app on that computer, while the connector above follows you to the web and your phone too.
If Claude answers without Dataki after installing, open Settings → Extensions in Claude and make sure Dataki is switched on.
02Ask it
What to ask in any Claude chat
The assistant finds your sources, learns what the columns mean and writes the SQL. Dataki runs it read-only, and every answer shows its query.
How did revenue move each month this year, and which plans carried it?
Dataki runs the query on your warehouse and charts the results. Every figure comes straight from your data.
Which customers upgraded this quarter, and what did each one add?
You get a table alongside the summary, so every figure can be checked line by line.
Save these two charts to a dashboard called Weekly review and share it with the team.
The dashboard lives in Dataki on a permanent link and refreshes on its own. Next week's numbers are already there.
Tell me when daily orders fall below 100.
watch_metric runs the query on a schedule and emails you the moment the number crosses your line. list_schedules shows everything you are watching.

04Worth knowing
What Claude gets, and what it never does
- Charts arrive in the conversation
- Claude supports MCP Apps, so Dataki answers with live charts, tables and headline numbers beside the chat, in the same style as your Dataki dashboards. Every chart is checked against its data before you see it, and
Add to dashboardkeeps it. - It acts as you, and only as you
- Claude reaches exactly what you can reach in Dataki. Your team permissions, spend limits and query log all apply.
- Under the hood
- OAuth 2.1 with PKCE and dynamic client registration: Claude discovers where to send you, you sign in and approve the scopes, and it receives a revocable credential. Nothing is typed into a config file.
More on the server itself, and every tool it offers, on the MCP server page. How credentials, keys and the query log work: security and governance.
Dataki and Claude
- How do I connect Claude to a PostgreSQL database?
- Connect PostgreSQL to Dataki once with a read-only user, then add https://dataki.ai/api/mcp as a custom connector in Claude and sign in. Claude can then list your sources, read the schema and run read-only queries, and every answer arrives as a chart in the chat.
- Does the Dataki connector work in the Claude mobile app?
- Yes. A connector added to your Claude account follows you to Claude on the web, the desktop app and the phone app. The desktop extension, the alternative route, is for the desktop app on one computer.
- Does Claude get my database password?
- No. Your database credentials stay encrypted in Dataki and never reach Claude or any model. Claude calls Dataki's MCP server, Dataki runs the SQL with a read-only role, and only the results reach the conversation.
- Can Claude change or delete data through Dataki?
- No. Dataki is read-only end to end: any statement that changes data is refused before it runs, and the connection itself uses a role that cannot write. Claude can create and edit Dataki dashboards, which live in Dataki, never in your database.
- Which databases can Claude query through Dataki?
- Any source connected to Dataki: Google BigQuery, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Amazon Redshift, Supabase, Google Sheets and uploaded CSV or Excel files, including hosted databases such as Neon, Amazon RDS, Cloud SQL and PlanetScale. Google Analytics 4, Firebase, Search Console, Firestore and Stripe work through their exports to BigQuery. One question can draw on several sources.
Connect Claude. Ask it something.
Connect a source to Dataki, add the server to Claude, and your first answer is one question away. Anything worth keeping becomes a live dashboard with its own link.
