Keboola
What it is
Keboola is a data platform for creating and orchestrating pipelines, then operating analytics and integrations. It lists managed connectors, conditional orchestration flows, monitoring, alerts, schedules, and triggers. Transformations can use SQL, Python, and R, though free projects are limited to Snowflake SQL and Python. Keboola lists 1,601 connectors, including Shopify, Salesforce, HubSpot, Snowflake, PostgreSQL, Google Analytics, Stripe, and BigQuery. Users can work through its web platform, REST API, CLI, or MCP server; the company says AI agents and assistants can operate Keboola through MCP. Governance capabilities include a Data Catalog, sharing, metadata and lineage, access controls, activity monitoring, and logs. The platform runs across AWS, Azure, and GCP; enterprise customers can select a provider or region or use a private cloud. Keboola states it encrypts stored data with AES-256 and data in transit with TLS 1.2+, and lists SOC 2 Type II, GDPR, and HIPAA compliance capabilities. The free plan provides 120 compute minutes in the first month and 60 minutes monthly thereafter. Extra compute costs $0.14 per minute. Free projects lack the Data Catalog and project-to-project sharing.
