What is Cube?

Cube is an API‑first business intelligence platform for data engineers and application developers to make data accessible and consistent across every application.

Learn more about connecting Cube to data sources and analytics & visualization tools.

The anatomy of Headless BI

Power analytics & visualization tools and other data applications by defining a data model, accelerating your queries, managing security and multitenancy, and exposing data to your applications via SQL, REST, and GraphQL APIs.

Connect to modern data sources

Use any SQL‑compliant data source: cloud data warehouses like Snowflake or Google BigQuery, query engines like Presto or Amazon Athena, and application databases like Postgres.

Check supported data sources.

Create your data model

Declaratively define how your metrics should be calculated, and leverage built‑in caching and access control with multitenancy and row‑level security.

Cube really stood out as a great fit for our use case. We were able to level‑up our data infrastructure without needing to build a full‑blown and expensive data pipeline.

Architect

Cube helped us reduce response times 100x and increase the amount of information we could display on our customer facing dashboards.

Thomas Ankcorn

Technical Lead

Cube is an API that's built already. We’re not starting from scratch. Otherwise we’d be building an HTTP layer and abstraction over SQL.

Craig Beck

Software Engineer

We can develop and ship analytics products without dealing with any net new infrastructure development going forward. Our efforts are focused on what matters: the data and the UI.
