How to Connect Business Data to ChatGPT & Claude | Geckoboard Metrics MCP
Turn ChatGPT, Claude and other AI assistants into personal data analysts with the Geckoboard Metrics MCP.
In this walkthrough, Geckoboard VP of Product Ben Newell explains how the Metrics MCP gives AI tools access to accurate, real-time business metrics, and shows you how to connect your data and get started.
Most AI connectors return raw records, such as individual tickets, deals or calls. The AI must then retrieve those records, define the metric and calculate the result every time. This can be slow, token-intensive and inconsistent.
The Geckoboard Metrics MCP provides a ready-made data model containing pre-calculated metrics, filters and breakdowns. Your AI assistant can query the data it needs directly, giving you faster, more consistent answers.
Watch the video to learn how to:
- Ask questions about your business data using natural language
- Analyse metrics without relying on the AI to define and calculate them
- Create automated reports containing numbers and insights
- Build bespoke tools for your team
- Connect a data source such as Zendesk to Geckoboard
- Use Geckoboard with ChatGPT, Claude and other MCP-compatible AI tools
- Get started with Geckoboard’s ready-made AI skills
