Board prep
The CEO asks for the numbers behind the Revenue dashboard. Memtro lists its cards, runs the MRR and churn questions and returns both tables with the SQL each one executes.
Metabase + Memtro
Run your saved questions and ad-hoc SQL through Metabase
Connect Metabase with an API key and Memtro can find and run saved questions, read dashboards, browse the tables Metabase knows about and run read-only SQL, all under the permissions of the group you choose for the key.
What you can do with Metabase in Memtro
Ask in plain English from chat, your editor, a scheduled job or your own agent. The model picks the right Metabase tool, reads what it needs, and answers with the source cited.

Ad-hoc question nobody saved
Marketing wants signups by campaign for last week. Memtro looks up the events table in the metadata, writes a SELECT with a GROUP BY and runs it through Metabase, so the key's group permissions still apply.
- Search saved questions, models, dashboards and tables
- Run any saved question and get a named-column result
- Dashboards with their cards and filters
- Database and table metadata with field types
- Native SELECT queries with Metabase enforcing data permissions
- Collections and their contents
Ask it like this
Questions people ask once Metabase is connected. In agent mode each one also checks the other systems that know about the same people, companies or identifiers.
- ›Run the 'Weekly active users' question
- ›What's on the Revenue dashboard and when was it updated?
- ›Which tables are in the analytics database?
- ›Average order value by month this year in the warehouse database
- ›Find questions about churn
Where it fits
Teams that get the most from Metabase in Memtro, with the rest of their stack attached.
- Data and analyticsQuestions answered from the warehouse, with the SQL shownPoint Memtro at a read-only replica and anyone can ask the warehouse a question in plain English. The agent reads the schema, writes the query, runs it inside a read-only transaction, and shows its work.
- MarketingSpend, leads and reputation in one conversationAd platforms, email tools, social pages, review sites and analytics each have their own dashboard. Memtro reads them all through read-only connectors, so one question can cover what you spent, what it brought in, what customers are saying and what the CRM did with the leads.
- LeadershipOne question across the whole companyFounders and managers ask what is happening and get an answer stitched from support, sales, finance and engineering, with every figure traced to its source and the rest of the week handled by jobs.
Better together
A record in Metabase is rarely the whole story. Connect the systems that hold the rest and the agent cross-references them by default, then remembers what it learned so the next question starts further along.
Also in Analytics
Using something else for the same job, or both? Each connector has its own tools; connect as many as you like.

Clients and agents →Questions
- Can Memtro change anything in Metabase?
- No. The Metabase connector is read-only: every tool reads, searches or lists. Nothing is created, sent, updated or deleted, and the credentials you give it should be read-only too.
- Who can use a Metabase connection?
- A personal connection serves only your own requests. A shared connection serves the organisation: everyone, or only the teams an admin chooses. Admins can always add shared connections; other members need the permission.
- Does Memtro store my Metabase data?
- Credentials are encrypted at rest. Tool results are cached briefly so agent loops do not repeat identical calls, and the facts the model extracts are saved to your organisation's memory with provenance (system, record and link) so they can be checked and superseded.
- How do I connect Metabase?
- API key. In Metabase (0.49 or newer) go to Admin → Settings → Authentication → API keys and create a key.
