About MotherDuck
MotherDuck climbs from serverless DuckDB warehouse to an agent-operable data platform
MotherDuck ships a dense, real release stream on two fronts: tracking DuckDB core (1.5.x, DuckLake, concurrent checkpoints) and building an agent-and-embed layer on top (Dives data apps, an MCP server, the MCP Dive Viewer now in ChatGPT and Claude Cowork). The latest notes add server-side Iceberg interop and a new pipelines product, Flights.
