Read: Query Any Table Without Writing SQL

Stop writing SELECT statements for every data question. Ask your AI agent for row counts, join results, or trend analysis across any MariaDB table. The MCP server handles query construction and execution.

Your AI agent reads harmonized data across 500+ platforms. "Cost" in Google Ads and "spend" in Meta Ads resolve to the same field automatically.

Example prompts
"Show anomalies across all accounts" 2h → 40s
"CPL in New York vs. California?" 1h → 30s
"ROAS by campaign type, last 30 days" 45m → 15s

🚀 Write

Write: Update Records and Run Operations via Chat

Your AI agent can act on your database — not just read from it. Insert records, update fields, and run maintenance operations through natural language. The MCP server translates intent into safe, audited SQL.

250+ governance rules enforce naming conventions, budget limits, and KPI thresholds. SOC 2 Type II certified.

⚠️ Monitor

Monitor: Alerts on Data Quality and Schema Drift

Know when something breaks before it becomes a production incident. Your AI agent watches MariaDB for unexpected row counts, schema changes, and data anomalies — and notifies you instantly.

Automated weekly reports, anomaly flagging, and budget alerts — all from a single conversation. No more morning check-ins across 5 dashboards.

Monitor prompts
"Flag ad groups over 120% budget" 3h → 1m
"Weekly report: spend, CPA, anomalies" 3h → auto
"Which creatives are fatiguing?" 2h → 30s

The Closed Loop: Read → Decide → Write → Monitor

Your AI agent can act on your database — not just read from it. Insert records, update fields, and run maintenance operations through natural language. The MCP server translates intent into safe, audited SQL.

Every phase runs through the same MCP connection. One protocol, all platforms, full governance. No switching between tools.

Challenge 1

Ad-Hoc SQL Requests Pile Up Across Teams

THE PROBLEM

Data teams get flooded with one-off SQL requests from product, ops, and finance. Each request needs context, schema knowledge, and careful query construction. Teams wait days for answers that should take minutes.

HOW MCP SOLVES IT

Improvado's MCP server gives non-technical stakeholders direct access to MariaDB through natural language. They ask questions, the AI agent writes and executes the SQL, and results come back instantly — without filing a request.

Try asking
"Show ROAS across all 120 accounts"

Challenge 2

Schema Changes Break Downstream Pipelines

THE PROBLEM

A developer renames a column or drops an index and nobody knows until a dashboard goes blank or an ETL job fails. There's no lightweight way to monitor schema drift across a busy MariaDB instance.

HOW MCP SOLVES IT

The MCP server continuously tracks schema state. Your AI agent can diff current schema against a known-good baseline and alert the moment a structural change is detected — before downstream systems are affected.

Challenge 3

No Visibility Into Data Quality at Scale

THE PROBLEM

Teams don't know when NULL rates spike, referential integrity breaks, or duplicate records accumulate — until a business decision gets made on bad data. Manual audits are slow and only happen reactively.

HOW MCP SOLVES IT

Ask the AI agent to run a data quality audit across any set of tables. It checks NULLs, duplicates, foreign key violations, and value distribution anomalies in one pass — and flags issues with suggested remediation.

Try asking
"PMax vs. Search ROAS for Q1?"

👥 Teams

One Framework. Five Roles. Zero Setup.

Same MCP connection, different workflows for every team member. Agency CEOs get portfolio health. Media Strategists get campaign QA. Analysts get cross-platform reports. Account Managers get auto-generated QBR decks. Creative Directors get performance-based briefs.

Each role asks in natural language. The MCP server handles the complexity — rate limits, auth, schema normalization, governance — behind the scenes.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a MariaDB MCP server?
+

A MariaDB MCP server is a Model Context Protocol server that lets AI agents like Claude query and interact with your MariaDB database in natural language. Improvado's hosted MCP server connects to your MariaDB instance, handles authentication, and exposes data to your AI tool without requiring SQL expertise.

Does this work with both MariaDB and MySQL?
+

Yes. MariaDB is wire-compatible with MySQL. Improvado's MCP server connects to both. If your organization runs MariaDB 10.x or any MySQL-compatible database, the same MCP connection and natural language queries work without modification.

Is my database data secure through the MCP server?
+

Yes. Improvado is SOC 2 Type II certified. Database credentials are stored in an encrypted vault and never exposed to AI clients. All queries run through Improvado's secure proxy. You control which tables and schemas are accessible.

Which AI tools work with the MariaDB MCP server?
+

Any tool supporting the Model Context Protocol — Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, ChatGPT, and custom MCP clients. Claude is most commonly used for database work due to its strong SQL reasoning capabilities and native MCP support.

Can the AI agent write back to my MariaDB database?
+

Yes, with appropriate permissions configured. The MCP server supports read-only mode by default. Write access (INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE) can be enabled with scoped credentials. All write operations are logged for auditability.

How is this different from connecting a BI tool to MariaDB?
+

BI tools require predefined dashboards and fixed queries. The MCP server lets your AI agent answer any question, join any tables, and detect any anomaly dynamically — no pre-built reports needed. It's also accessible to non-technical users who can't write SQL.
