Genie, our AI Analyst, can already tell you what changed in your numbers. It's never been able to tell you why, because the why almost never lives in Databox.
Revenue drops 8%, and the real reason is a stalled deal in HubSpot, a pricing objection buried in a Slack thread, or a support ticket nobody flagged. Right now, finding that out means leaving your dashboard, opening three other tools, and piecing it together yourself. Every time.
Next week, we're launching MCP Connectors. Connect your CRM, Slack, support desk, or any MCP server, and your AI Analyst gets that same context, right inside the conversation. Ask why a number moved, and it points to the actual deal or thread behind it, not just the number.
Databox
Hi Product Hunt! 👋
I'm Pete from Databox. Today we're launching MCP connectors for Genie, our AI Analyst.
Genie analyzes your live metrics and tells you what changed. But a metric alone rarely explains what's going on.
Trial signups dip, and the reason is a pricing change your team shipped two weeks ago. Traffic jumps, and behind it is an influencer mentioning you on reddit that none of your analytics can track. The numbers alone can't tell you why something happened.
The deal context in your CRM, the tickets in your support desk, the tasks in your project tool and the Slack messages where your team discussed that unexpected Reddit mention. That's the explanation, and it's spread across the tools where work and conversations happen.
That context is what separates a generic report from a useful one. Any AI can look at a chart and tell you a number fell 12%. Knowing that two big deals slipped because you didn't anticipate a more extensive legal review, support tickets spiked after a feature release, and the reasons your ad strategy changed mid-month is what makes a report useful and actionable. Until now, getting that kind of answer meant someone gathering the context by hand, every time.
MCP connectors give Genie that context. Connect your tools, and Genie pulls from them during analysis, so its answers reflect what's actually happening in your business.
In addition to automating reporting, you can also use Databox's new MCP connectors to execute actions in other tools, based on your analysis. Want to shut down an ad campaign once it stops performing? No problem. Just write a skill in Databox that instructs your ad platform to shut down a campaign once frequency hits 5 and conversion rate drops below 1%. Want to update content on a website page after it stops getting search traffic? Easy. Want to create a task for your sales team if they have too many deals open without a next step? Even easier.
How it works:
One-click connectors: HubSpot, Slack, Notion, Linear, Mixpanel, Semrush, Klaviyo, Ahrefs, and more, with 10+ available at launch
Custom connectors: add any MCP server by URL, with OAuth, API key, or bearer token support
Permissions you control: set every tool to always allow, needs approval, or blocked, so Genie only acts where you've said it can
Skills & Routines: Write skills that pull data from specific integrations and context from specific MCP servers, automate actions based on the analysis. Run it completely autonomously using Routines.
MCP connectors are live today: https://databox.com/
