BigID already delivers out-of-the-box value with built-in dashboards, reports, and visuals that help teams answer essential questions fast. But what happens when users want to go further? Customize what’s shown? Explore data in new ways? Ask more complex questions—even if they don’t yet know exactly what to ask?
Traditionally, that meant exporting to a spreadsheet, fiddling with a BI tool, or wrangling clunky visuals – often hitting a wall unless you had technical expertise.
But the game has changed. The rise of AI assistants, copilots, and natural language interfaces is reshaping how we interact with software – and expectations are higher than ever. Whether it’s summarizing reports, generating visualizations, or querying data using plain language, AI is speeding up how people work across every function.
BigID is embracing that shift. We’re making it easier to access and interact with the full power of the BigID platform, so that users can ask questions, explore data, build reports, and take action more intuitively.
Enter: BigID MCP Server
To unlock this next level of usability and flexibility, we’re introducing BigID MCP Server, a new way to interact with your BigID data through the Model Context Protocol (MCP): an emerging standard designed for AI-native applications.
MCP Server gives users secure, direct access to BigID’s rich data and metadata from the tools they’re already using – whether that’s Claude Desktop, Gemini CLI, VS Code, or other AI-driven interfaces.
With MCP Server, you can:
- Query BigID data in natural language from your desktop or preferred AI agent
- Generate and refine reports without needing to log into a dashboard
- Build custom visuals, summaries, or outputs on the fly
- Experiment, explore, and iterate faster—with less friction
The result? More insight. Less busywork. And more power in the hands of every BigID user—regardless of their technical background.
This is just the beginning. With MCP, BigID becomes not just a platform you use – but a platform you can converse with.
