Summary

Hex Technologies has launched a new Slack integration and Model Context Protocol (MCP) support for its Hex Agent, enabling users to access data insights directly in their existing workflows. The Slack integration allows team members to ask data-related questions by mentioning @Hex in any channel, with the agent providing answers, explanations, charts, and links to relevant Hex projects. This integration is available to Explorer+ seats on Team and Enterprise plans for US multi-tenant stacks, while the MCP server extends Hex's capabilities to code editors and AI tools like Claude Desktop and Cursor, facilitating seamless data analysis without custom API integrations. These innovations aim to make AI-powered analytics more accessible and transparent, allowing users to collaborate effectively and make informed decisions.
