What if you could ask an AI assistant about your company's sales figures in plain English and get the answer as a chart? That is the idea behind ClicData MCP, which the data platform ClicData has launched, according to a press release dated October 21, 2026.

ClicData is a data and AI platform for midsize companies. MCP stands for Model Context Protocol and is a kind of standard plug that makes it possible to connect data to AI assistants.

Questions in plain language

According to ClicData's product page, the server connects a company's data with Claude, ChatGPT and other AI assistants. Users can ask questions about business data without knowing SQL, the coding language normally used to pull data out of databases.

The answers are based on data in ClicData's data warehouse and are shown as charts directly in the chat. According to the company, the conversations can be turned into shareable dashboards that are updated continuously. ClicData says the platform has more than 500 data sources and more than 80 types of visualizations.

Same rules as before

Security is a central part of the pitch. According to ClicData, the assistant's queries run within the existing permissions, connections and the logging that shows who has done what. No separate copy of the data sits in the assistant. If a user cannot see something in ClicData, their assistant cannot show it either.

Shree Neve, VP of Operations, North America at ClicData, says that AI only delivers value on clean, governed data, and that ClicData MCP brings that data into the assistants that teams at midsize companies use.

The launch supplements ClicData's existing AI Dashboard Builder and AskAI assistants. The target audience is midsize companies without their own data engineering teams.

Analyst: Promise and risk

Kevin Petrie, VP of Research at the analyst firm BARC US, says, according to CIO Influence, that agentic analytics holds both the promise of democratized data access and the risk of governance chaos. He highlighted that ClicData's approach can help smaller companies get reliable analytics in a secure and audited environment.

Early access first

Access will first roll out as early access to existing ClicData customers. Other interested organizations can book a demo or contact the company. The sources do not state what the solution costs or when it will be broadly available.

All information about features and security comes from ClicData itself, and there is no independent test of the solution.
