AlphAI financial news MCP server
by makeev · official
Lets your AI search financial news, check insider trades and read per-ticker analysis for you.
AlphAI is a hosted helper that connects your AI assistant to a financial news service. Once it is connected, you can ask your AI things like what is happening with a certain stock, and it will look it up for you. It is handy if you follow markets, write about companies, or just want a quick read on the news.
What is an MCP server? The 30-second version
On its own, your AI can only chat with you using what it already knows. An MCP server is a small helper that gives your AI a new skill or a connection to an outside service. This one connects your AI to AlphAI, a financial news platform. So when you ask about a stock or a market story, your AI can go and look it up there and bring the answer back to you.
What this MCP server does
You ask your AI a question about financial news or a stock. Your AI sends that request to the AlphAI helper over the internet. The helper searches AlphAI's news feed, which is already sorted by ticker, category and a relevance score from 1 to 10. It also has SEC Form 4 insider trading news and earnings reads. Your AI then gives you back a short list or summary in the chat.
