Databox fits teams that mainly need to watch KPIs from cloud tools rather than model data in depth. The free plan covers 1 user, 3 data sources and 50 AI credits a month, with cloud integrations, the Genie AI analyst, performance summaries and a governed semantic layer. Analyst costs $71 per month billed annually for 1 user and 5 data sources, and adds custom data integrations, API access and an MCP server. Team plans start at $199 per month for 3 users and 10 sources, and Scale at $319 covers 10 users and 30 sources. Dashboards come with custom and pre-built metrics, templates, goals and anomaly detection, which help a busy operations lead see what changed without writing queries. Every plan can be trialed for 14 days. The limits are structural: data source caps arrive quickly, and Databox is a metrics and reporting tool rather than a full analysis workbench.
