Why teams connect MotherDuck and Pigment

Land the financial records from Pigment in MotherDuck continuously, and write results back, without building or maintaining a pipeline.

Finance data belongs in the warehouse: revenue, invoices, payments, and customers joined with everything else the business measures. Getting it there usually means an extraction pipeline that breaks quietly and delivers yesterday's numbers.

Stacksync syncs Data imports, Users and permissions, Applications, Metrics from Pigment into tables in MotherDuck in real time, and the connection works in both directions: values computed in MotherDuck can be written back to fields in Pigment where you want them operational. Schema changes are handled, API limits are managed, and the sync is something you configure rather than code you maintain.

Common use cases

  • Export approved budgets and forecasts back to a warehouse or Postgres for downstream reporting.
  • Keep dimension lists such as departments and cost centers consistent with master data in the ERP.
  • Share curated, synced datasets with other teams through read-only database shares
  • Land CRM and operational database records in MotherDuck so a small team gets warehouse-style analytics without cluster management

Revenue joined with everything else

Analysts combine Pigment's financial records with product, marketing, or operational data already in MotherDuck for reporting the finance system cannot do alone.

Write-back of computed fields

Scores or segments computed in MotherDuck, like payment-risk flags or customer tiers, sync back onto records in Pigment where the finance team can act on them.

Queryable history for audit and reconciliation

A continuously synced copy in MotherDuck gives you a durable, queryable record of financial data for month-end and audit questions.
