Connect Looker and
MySQL with AI

Redbird AI connects your semantic layer to your transactional database, automating metric validation, schema change detection, and operational reporting. Stop manually checking if your LookML models match production tables or exporting dashboard data back to MySQL.

What you can automate today

Redbird gives your team ready-to-run workflows — just connect your accounts and go.

Validate LookML models against MySQL schema changes automatically

Detect when MySQL table structures change and flag mismatches in your Looker dimensions and measures. Redbird compares production schemas to LookML definitions and alerts teams before queries break, ensuring your semantic layer stays accurate.

Sync aggregated Looker metrics back to MySQL operational tables

Write calculated metrics and KPIs from Looker directly into MySQL tables for use by applications. Redbird transforms dashboard aggregations into normalized records, powering features like customer health scores or inventory thresholds in your production systems.

Archive scheduled dashboard results to MySQL for audit trails

Capture point-in-time snapshots of executive dashboards and store them as structured records in MySQL. Redbird automatically writes scheduled Look results to audit tables, creating compliance-ready historical records of business metrics.

Enrich MySQL customer records with Looker-calculated lifetime value

Push behavioral analytics and calculated metrics from Looker back to customer tables in MySQL. Redbird matches user IDs across systems and writes LTV, engagement scores, and cohort assignments directly to operational records for real-time personalization.

Monitor MySQL query performance and log slow queries to Looker

Stream MySQL slow query logs and performance metrics into Looker for centralized database health monitoring. Redbird normalizes query execution data and makes it explorable through LookML, giving DBAs self-serve access to performance insights.

Trigger alerts when Looker explores reveal data quality issues in MySQL

Automatically flag unexpected nulls, duplicates, or outliers detected through Looker exploration directly to database teams. Redbird monitors dashboard queries for anomalies and writes issue tickets with source table context to MySQL tracking tables.

Live in four steps

No engineers, no pipelines to maintain. Redbird handles the connectivity — you focus on the outcome.

01

Connect your accounts

Authorize Looker and MySQL with OAuth or API credentials. Redbird never stores your data — it just passes through.

02

Describe what you want

Tell Redbird what to do in plain language — no SQL, no code, no configuration files required.

03

Review and activate

Redbird shows you exactly what it will do before running anything. Approve the workflow, set a schedule, and switch it on.

04

Let it run — and iterate

Workflows run on your schedule or on triggers. Every run is logged. Adjust with natural language at any time.

Built for data-driven teams

Redbird understands both LookML semantic models and MySQL relational schemas, mapping business logic to table structures automatically and keeping your analytics layer synchronized with production data.

AI that reads LookML and MySQL schemas as native languages

Redbird parses LookML view files to understand your metric definitions, dimensions, and joins, then maps them directly to MySQL table structures, columns, and indexes. When you sync aggregated metrics back to MySQL, Redbird automatically handles type conversions, handles joins across normalized tables, and ensures referential integrity. Schema changes in MySQL trigger intelligent comparisons against LookML models, flagging breaking changes before they cascade to dashboards.

faster than building custom ETL to sync Looker and MySQL

No Python scripts to maintain, no cron jobs to monitor, no manual column mapping

Auto-generated reports

Redbird can pull from Looker and MySQL simultaneously, merge the results, and format a polished report — sent on a schedule or on demand.

Trigger-based alerts

Set conditions in natural language. Get notified in Slack or email the moment a threshold is crossed in either Looker or MySQL.

Enterprise-grade security

SOC 2 Type II certified. Data flows encrypted in transit and at rest. Fine-grained permission controls with full audit logs.

Bidirectional sync

Push data from Looker into MySQL, or from MySQL back into Looker. Resolve conflicts with configurable merge rules.

Full audit trail

Every workflow run is logged — what ran, what changed, and why. Replay or revert any individual step at any time.

Triggers & actions for every team

Start automations from dashboard schedules, explore queries, or database events—Redbird connects every layer of your analytics and operational stack.
