Scout MCP
Business & Market Intelligence for AI Agents
Google for AI agents — instead of web pages, it returns clean, structured JSON that agents can reason over.
Scout MCP gives any AI agent instant access to structured business intelligence, market research, and competitive analysis. It aggregates data from DuckDuckGo, NewsAPI, Wikipedia, web scraping, and social profiles into Pydantic-validated JSON responses with per-source confidence breakdowns and data quality grades.
