The Challenge

Quickbase, a leading low-code platform, wanted to enable their users to build applications and automate workflows using natural language through Claude AI. Traditional approaches would require:

  • 6+ months of development time
  • Hiring specialized AI engineers
  • Complex integration architecture
  • Significant investment with uncertain ROI

Our Solution

Using our Velvet Glove MCP framework, we delivered a complete AI integration in just 5 days:

Day 1

API Analysis & Planning

Analyzed Quickbase's REST API, identified key endpoints for table management, record operations, and app configuration.

Day 2

MCP Server Development

Built the core MCP server with tools for creating tables, managing records, and executing queries through natural language.

Day 3

Security & Authentication

Implemented OAuth2 flow, user token management, and row-level security to ensure enterprise-grade protection.

Day 4

Testing & Refinement

Comprehensive testing with real Quickbase applications, handling edge cases, and optimizing response times.

Day 5

Deployment & Documentation

Deployed to production, created white-label documentation, and trained the Quickbase team on maintenance.

The Results
