Best ChatGPT Plugins for Data Analysis
ChatGPT analyzes a spreadsheet you upload. A data plugin connects it to the data you keep elsewhere: your Power BI reports, Airtable bases and product analytics. Start with one of these five.
- Microsoft Power BI: reports your company already has
- Airtable: questions about your own tables
- Amplitude: product analytics
- Hex: questions a data team would answer
- PostHog: product teams that ship features
How we picked. We check the ChatGPT directory every hour. We rank the plugins for each task by how often people search for them with ChatGPT. Ties go to the directory’s Featured and home page picks, then to the plugins ChatGPT offers on its own in conversations.
1. Microsoft Power BI
Best for reports your company already has
The Power BI plugin works in your browser with your own Power BI account. Ask ChatGPT to explain a report, its filters and the data behind it, build a report from a semantic model, pin the key visuals to a dashboard or publish an update to a workspace.
OpenAI builds and maintains it. It runs in the ChatGPT desktop app with the permissions your account already has, and it doesn’t work on the web or on mobile. People search for Power BI with ChatGPT more than for any other data tool, and ChatGPT names it first when you ask for a plugin that builds dashboards.

2. Airtable
Best for questions about your own tables
Airtable connects ChatGPT to your bases. Ask what is at risk on the product roadmap, see it as a kanban board, then create or update records without leaving the chat.
Use your Airtable data as input for other work, such as a landing page built from content you keep in a base. The plugin comes with skills for filters and the Airtable CLI.

3. Amplitude
Best for product analytics
Amplitude connects your workspace, so ChatGPT can search your charts and dashboards, query metrics and experiment results, and explore events and properties.
It creates or updates charts, dashboards and alerts from the chat. ChatGPT names Amplitude when you ask for a plugin that builds dashboards from your data.

4. Hex
Best for questions a data team would answer
Hex hands your question to the Hex Agent, which runs the analysis on your company’s data. Ask who your top customers are by revenue, how sales conversion compares with benchmarks, or pull up the board meeting dashboard.
When no dashboard answers the question yet, Hex starts a new analysis.

5. PostHog
Best for product teams that ship features
PostHog gives ChatGPT your product analytics, feature flags, experiments, error tracking, surveys and logs. Ask for page views over the last week or the split in an A/B test.
It creates insights, turns feature flags on and off and digs into errors from the chat.
