Which analytics and BI tools have an MCP server?
8 of 15 tools do, according to their public docs, and 4 partly.
Yes: Databricks, Snowflake, Omni, Sigma, BigQuery, Metabase, Alteryx, MotherDuck. Partly: Hex, Looker, Tableau, Power BI.
The question we asked: Does the vendor support an MCP server with documented authentication for outside agents?
Grading standard
A vendor-supported MCP server gives outside agents access to the customer’s analytical objects or data, with documented authentication and no customer-built middleware. A vendor-supported server the customer operates, or one in preview, earns partly. A server built by the community or by customers, or one that only searches documentation, does not count.
