# Embeddable

> Embeddable is a developer toolkit for building customer-facing analytics — embedded dashboards, self-serve analytics, and AI-powered insights — into your own application. Engineers define components, data models, and themes in code; their team assembles and publishes dashboards with a no-code builder or directly in code.

This file maps embeddable.com for AI tools: the product, the problems teams hit when they ship analytics to their own customers, and our guides by topic. The technical documentation has its own index.

For AI coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex):

- [Documentation index for AI tools](https://docs.embeddable.com/llms.txt): Start here: every section of the Embeddable documentation, with its key pages.
- [Build dashboards with AI](https://docs.embeddable.com/dashboards/build-with-ai): Embeddable's `dashboard-as-code` Claude skill scaffolds and edits dashboards from a prompt; the guidance is plain markdown any agent can use.
- [Starter workspace with Claude Code skills](https://github.com/embeddable-hq/remarkable-pro-boilerplate): A boilerplate workspace for Embeddable, with Claude Code skills for components, data models, dashboards as code and theming.
