Zaturn is an AI-powered data analytics tool that enables you to interact with your data through natural language. It acts as a co-pilot for data analytics and business insights, eliminating the need to write SQL or Python code. Zaturn can be deployed as an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server or used as a web interface similar to Jupyter Notebook.

Getting Started with Zaturn

Supported Data Sources

Zaturn can connect to various data sources:

  • SQL Databases: PostgreSQL, SQLite, DuckDB, MySQL, ClickHouse, SQL Server
  • Files: CSV, Parquet

Visualization Capabilities

Zaturn generates various visualizations to help analyze your data:

  • Scatter and Line Plots
  • Histograms
  • Strip and Box Plots
  • Bar Plots

Installation

For detailed installation instructions, visit the official installation documentation.

Using Zaturn

Connecting to Data Sources

Once installed, you can connect Zaturn to your preferred data source. The system supports multiple database types and file formats.

Interacting with Your Data

Simply ask questions about your data in plain English. For example:

What were the top 5 products by revenue last month?

Zaturn will:

  1. Translate your question into the appropriate SQL query
  2. Execute the query against your data source
  3. Return the results in a readable format

Creating Visualizations

Request visualizations directly through natural language:

Show me a bar chart of sales by region

or

Create a scatter plot comparing product price and sales volume

Analyzing Data

Ask complex analytical questions:

What's the month-over-month growth rate for our premium subscribers?

Zaturn handles the underlying SQL complexity while you focus on getting insights from your data.

How to install this MCP server

For Claude Code

To add this MCP server to Claude Code, run this command in your terminal:

claude mcp add-json "zaturn" '{"command":"zaturn_mcp","args":[]}'

See the official Claude Code MCP documentation for more details.

For Cursor

There are two ways to add an MCP server to Cursor. The most common way is to add the server globally in the ~/.cursor/mcp.json file so that it is available in all of your projects.

If you only need the server in a single project, you can add it to the project instead by creating or adding it to the .cursor/mcp.json file.

Adding an MCP server to Cursor globally

To add a global MCP server go to Cursor Settings > Tools & Integrations and click "New MCP Server".

When you click that button the ~/.cursor/mcp.json file will be opened and you can add your server like this:

{
    "mcpServers": {
        "zaturn": {
            "command": "zaturn_mcp",
            "args": []
        }
    }
}

Adding an MCP server to a project

To add an MCP server to a project you can create a new .cursor/mcp.json file or add it to the existing one. This will look exactly the same as the global MCP server example above.

How to use the MCP server

Once the server is installed, you might need to head back to Settings > MCP and click the refresh button.

The Cursor agent will then be able to see the available tools the added MCP server has available and will call them when it needs to.

You can also explicitly ask the agent to use the tool by mentioning the tool name and describing what the function does.

For Claude Desktop

To add this MCP server to Claude Desktop:

1. Find your configuration file:

  • macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
  • Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
  • Linux: ~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

2. Add this to your configuration file:

{
    "mcpServers": {
        "zaturn": {
            "command": "zaturn_mcp",
            "args": []
        }
    }
}

3. Restart Claude Desktop for the changes to take effect
