Claude is a family of advanced large language models (LLMs) built by Anthropic, an AI research company founded in 2021. These models power the Claude conversational assistant and developer tools.

CData Connect AI offers a dedicated cloud-to-cloud interface for connecting to Twitter data. The CData Connect AI Remote MCP Server enables secure communication between Claude and Twitter. This allows you to ask questions and take actions on your Twitter data using Claude, all without the need for data replication to a natively supported database.
