# MotherDuck

MotherDuck is a serverless cloud data warehouse built on DuckDB. Each user, dashboard and agent session gets its own isolated DuckDB compute instance, called a Duckling, which scales to zero between sessions. Users query with SQL and Python and can use Flights for scheduled pipelines, Dives for visualizations, Guides for agent context and an MCP server.
