Scout Intel MCP — The Google for AI Agents
Give Claude, GPT, Cursor, or any AI agent instant access to structured business intelligence. Research any company, analyze competitors, track market trends, monitor breaking news, and investigate key people — all returned as clean, structured JSON with confidence scores and data quality grades.
Think of it as Google for AI agents — instead of web pages, it returns structured intelligence that agents can reason over.
Why Scout Intel MCP?
Most research requires agents to scrape random websites and parse messy HTML. Scout Intel aggregates 5 data sources (DuckDuckGo, NewsAPI, Wikipedia, web scraping, social profiles) into Pydantic-validated JSON with per-source confidence breakdowns and A–F data quality grades.
- Company Research — Revenue, employees, funding, tech stack, market positioning in one call
- Competitor Analysis — 350+ regex patterns extract competitors from 6 pattern categories
- Market Trends — Emerging trends, growth signals, disruption indicators with confidence scoring
- News Monitoring — Real-time aggregation from multiple news APIs with relevance ranking
- People Intelligence — Background, role history, social profiles, public presence (Pro)
- Due Diligence — Cross-referenced data from multiple sources with quality grades
