The Analytics API for Building
Data Applications
Quickly build analytics features and reporting tools
on top of your cloud data warehouse
What is Cube?
Cube is the headless API layer that connects cloud data warehouses to your front end code so you can build data applications faster.
How to build a data application
Use Cube to create a semantic API layer, manage access control, aggregate data, and cache queries for real‑time performance. Integrate with popular front‑end libraries to build custom UI and power innovative analytics features.
Connect to modern data stores
Use any SQL‑compliant data store: serverless query engines, RDBMS, and data warehouses.

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.

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.
Louis Zuckerman
Staff Software Engineer & Team Lead
Cube provides us with the framework and tools to build our custom data visualization platform with minimal effort. Our full‑stack developers are able to get productive quickly, optimizing performance wherever possible.
