DuckDB 1.5.3 support: MotherDuck supports DuckDB 1.5.3. Refer to the changelog and the official announcement for details.

Compact URLs for Dives with large filter state: Sharing or copying the URL of a Dive with extensive filters now uses a shortened URL to facilitate easier sharing.

Retool Cloud native integration: Connect Retool Cloud apps to MotherDuck through a native MotherDuck resource type, no JDBC driver required. Refer to Retool's documentation for setup.

Data exports from Dives: Dives can now include export buttons that deliver CSV, JSON, Parquet, or Excel files, both in the MotherDuck UI and in embedded Dives. Wire up exports from your Dive code with the new exportAs and useExport hooks from @motherduck/react-sql-query. Embedded exports are delivered to your host page through a postMessage channel and require dual mode, now the default for embedded Dives.

MotherDuck extends cloud coverage to Oregon us-west-2: MotherDuck is now available on AWS in Oregon us-west-2; users are able to create new Organizations in Oregon for lower latency and regional data residency.

Drizzle support via the Postgres endpoint: You can now connect to MotherDuck from Drizzle using the Postgres endpoint.

Duckling Overview UI: MotherDuck Admins now have access to a Duckling Overview page in Settings for a view of activity across every Duckling in the organization over the last 24 hours, including key metrics like status, disk spills, active minutes, and query-level drilldowns.

Dive Viewer Inline Preview for Remote MCP Server: The MotherDuck remote MCP server now includes an inline preview Dive viewer, allowing users and AI agents to create and view Dives directly in their chat workflow.

Removed Cross-Origin Isolation (COI) requirement for DuckDB Wasm: MotherDuck's DuckDB Wasm integration can now run in standard i-frames and non-COI third-party environments. This is already powering the MotherDuck UI and Embedded Dives, which default to dual execution for zero-latency client-side queries. Support for LOAD motherduck from custom DuckDB Wasm applications will follow in a future WASM SDK release.

DuckDB 1.5.2 support: MotherDuck supports DuckDB 1.5.2, a bugfix release. Learn more in the official DuckDB Labs 1.5.2 announcement and changelog.

DuckLake 1.0 support: MotherDuck supports DuckLake 1.0. Learn more in the official DuckDB Labs DuckLake 1.0 announcement.

Concurrent checkpoints: Checkpoints can now run concurrently to reads, insertions, and deletions. Previously, they could block or be blocked by user queries and also interfere with share updates, as these require a checkpoint. Note that concurrent checkpoints require writes or deletions to be issued by DuckDB clients that are at least on version 1.5.
