Streams, Queries & Quacks: A Data Meetup with Estuary & MotherDuck

We'll walk through turning Slack conversations into a queryable knowledge base using real-time data pipelines. Jonathan Wihl from Estuary will show how streaming data flows into MotherDuck without batch processing, and Jacob Matson from MotherDuck will cover metadata enrichment techniques that improve text-to-SQL accuracy — going beyond traditional foreign keys to surface hidden relationships in your data. Expect working demos, not slides.

DuckDB Developer Meeting #1

The first DuckDB Developer Meeting, held in Amsterdam, brings together engineers building DuckDB extensions and complex applications on top of DuckDB.

Organized by DuckDB Labs with MotherDuck participation.

HalfStack is a 200-person web and JavaScript conference at the Majestic Theater in Gilbert, AZ, with sessions on accessibility, AI-driven UIs, NFC hardware hacking, and in-browser data processing. No vendor pitches.

Meetup: MotherDuck ❤️ dltHub ❤️ Marimo

An afternoon meetup in Amsterdam with the teams behind MotherDuck, dltHub, and Marimo. Live demos show how these three tools connect in practice: dltHub for Python-native data ingestion pipelines, MotherDuck for serverless DuckDB analytics in the cloud, and Marimo for reactive Python notebooks. Early users share how they've wired the stack together, followed by open discussion on where the ecosystem is headed.

Let Your AI Agents Cook: Preparing Your Warehouse for AI

Most data warehouses aren't set up with AI agents in mind. This webinar covers what it actually takes to prepare your warehouse so LLMs and AI agents can query it reliably — from metadata enrichment and column naming conventions to access patterns that work with text-to-SQL. Practical steps you can take now, not a roadmap pitch.

The MCP Sessions - Vol 3: Clickstream Analytics

The third installment of The MCP Sessions — a live, unscripted format where two people query a dataset using the MotherDuck MCP server and talk through what they find. This volume focuses on clickstream data: page views, session paths, conversion funnels, and user behavior patterns. No slides, no prep — just SQL queries run through natural language against real data, with commentary on what the results mean.

Data Day Texas

Two-day community data conference in Austin. MotherDuck sponsors the database track, and DuckDB co-creator Hannes Muhleisen runs an open AMA. Sessions range from Bill Inmon on data architecture to hands-on workshops on data contracts, BAML for AI agents, and knowledge graphs. Other talks cover AI-ready data with semantic layers, solopreneur data businesses, and why finance kills AI projects. About 15 sponsors and a broad mix of data engineering, analytics, and AI content.

The MCP Sessions - Vol 2: Supply Chain Analytics

The second MCP Sessions — same unscripted format, different dataset. This time we dig into supply chain data using the MotherDuck MCP server: inventory levels, shipping timelines, supplier performance, and bottleneck analysis. Two people, natural language queries, real data, and a running conversation about what the numbers actually tell you. No slides.

AI Agents for Business Analytics

Text-to-SQL benchmarks top out around 78% accuracy — not good enough when business decisions depend on the answer. Ryan Boyd walks through what it takes to close that gap and make LLM-powered analytics actually reliable. Covers the failure modes that trip up AI agents on real business data, the metadata and schema patterns that improve accuracy, and how MotherDuck approaches the problem differently.

The MCP Sessions - Vol 1: Sports Analytics

The first MCP Sessions — a live format where two people explore a dataset using the MotherDuck MCP server with no slides or prep. Volume 1 focuses on sports data: player stats, team comparisons, historical trends, and whatever questions come up in the moment. Natural language queries go in, SQL runs on MotherDuck, and the conversation follows wherever the data leads.

Workshop: Build a Serverless Lakehouse with DuckLake

Hands-on workshop where you build a serverless lakehouse from scratch using DuckLake. Covers setting up DuckLake on MotherDuck, ingesting data, running analytical queries, and understanding how DuckLake handles metadata and storage differently from traditional lakehouse formats like Iceberg and Delta Lake. You write the queries and follow along — not a demo you watch.
