Lightdash works with the tools your team already uses. Connect a dbt project to build your semantic layer from it, send chart results to Slack and Google Sheets, deliver alerts and scheduled reports, query your semantic layer from any SQL client, and operate Lightdash agentically from Snowflake Cortex. One closely related integration is documented in its own product area: the Lightdash MCP server, which lets AI assistants explore your data and run queries directly.
