CARTO for Agents

All of CARTO, wherever you work

CARTO, in your Agents. Build & use maps, workflows, and apps from the agentic platforms your team is already using: Claude, ChatGPT, Copilot and more.

Instant spatial answers

Describe the analysis you need. An agent plans it, builds it, and delivers the insight straight to the people who need it.

Zero to shipped in natural language

Pair an agent with the CARTO CLI or MCP Server, and go from a single prompt to a working map or app in minutes, no boilerplate first.

Every agent, everyone's platform

Connect Claude, ChatGPT, Copilot, and more, so anyone can ask a spatial question and get answers from the maps and workflows you build.

Ship in minutes, not sprints

Building a spatial app or an analysis workflow from scratch meant complex, manual backend setup—before the real work even starts. Use CARTO for Agents to scaffold a working app, map, or workflow from a single prompt.

Spatial analytics, where you're already working

Getting answers to spatial questions usually means a ticket, an analyst, and a wait. With CARTO for Agents, anyone can ask Claude, ChatGPT, or Copilot a spatial question in plain language and get back a real map or analysis, with data never leaving your warehouse.

Answers you can trust

A chatbot writing a new query on every request gives a different answer each run, with no audit trail. CARTO for Agents turns that request into an approved, reusable Workflow, so next time it just runs, not reinvents, the analysis.

Frequently asked questions

How is CARTO for Agents different from CARTO AI Agents?

CARTO AI Agents are conversational agents you build inside a Builder map or application, for exploring that map's data, operating related tools, running analysis, and more. CARTO for Agents is the reverse: it lets Claude, ChatGPT, Copilot, and other agentic platforms operate CARTO itself, building maps, running Workflows, and querying your warehouse from wherever your team already works. You can even use CARTO for Agents to create an AI Agent in CARTO!

Do I need to install anything?

No. Connect the CARTO MCP Server to your agentic platform of choice and authenticate with your CARTO account. Coding agents using the CARTO CLI and Agent Skills do require a quick local install.

Does my data leave my warehouse?

No. Every query runs inside your own warehouse (BigQuery, Snowflake, Databricks, Redshift, Oracle, or PostgreSQL), governed by the same permissions and row-level security you've already set up.

Which agentic platforms are supported?

Any platform that supports MCP, including Claude, ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, Gemini Enterprise, Snowflake Cowork, Databricks Agents, and Oracle AI Factory.
