Databricks launches Genie plugins for ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot and Grok

Databricks introduced Genie plugins that connect outside AI agents to its Genie Ontology, the company's layer of governed business definitions and learned organizational knowledge. The plugins work natively today in ChatGPT, Claude, Microsoft Copilot Cowork and Grok Bot, and agents without a native plugin can reach Genie through Databricks' MCP server. According to Databricks, Genie interprets business terms, locates permitted data, writes and runs SQL, routes specialist questions to domain Genie Agents and returns answers with citations. Customers can enable the plugin in their agent workspace; where MCP Apps is supported, interactive charts and ontology citations appear in the conversation.
