Data plugin
Query, visualise, and interpret datasets. Get answers from your data in plain English.
About this plugin
The Data plugin lets you ask Claude Cowork questions about your data and get real answers — not queries you have to run yourself. Connect it to your databases or upload CSV and Excel files, then ask questions like 'what were our top 10 customers last quarter?' or 'show me churn by cohort'. Claude runs the analysis and explains the results clearly.
What it's best for
Analysts, product managers, marketers, and anyone who works with data
How to install the Data plugin

Go to the Cowork tab
Click the Cowork tab in the left sidebar. This is separate from Chat and Code — it's designed for non-technical knowledge work.

- 4
Find "Data" and click Install
