Frequently Asked Questions

Why should I build tools for AI?

Anyone building apps should start thinking that we are not just building apps for humans but also for AI (agents) that will interact with our apps. What does this mean? Just like you have UIs to interact with the tools and data in your business, AI agents should have tools to do the same.

What is "MCP" and why should I care?

Model Context Protocol allows your AI to securely interact with Tools. Much like applications communicate with other apps, data sources and systems via APIs, AI agents and assistants do the same via MCPs. For example, a Figma MCP would allow AI assistants to operate Figma – things like creating new shapes, changing colors, and so on. Building your own MCPs with Databutton is important because the tools can be tailored to your workflows, data, and business.

What's special about Databutton MCP?

No coding, in your browser: You need to have a local setup (i.e. be a developer) to create these tools today. Databutton MCP removes that barrier. Hosting: Currently, most MCP servers run locally on your machine. That means it's not accessible over the internet. At Databutton, we host the MCP server online for you, so the tools you build can be used by many AI assistants with easy configuration.

Do I have to start from the Databutton MCP template?

Nope! You can turn any Databutton app into tools for AI by clicking the "Enable MCP" button and following the instructions.

Is it possible to build tools for AI from all Databutton apps?

Yep! Just click the "Enable MCP" button and follow the instructions.
