AlphaAI MCP server
Real-time, AI-enriched financial news for AI agents and trading bots — over the
Model Context Protocol. Hosted at mcp.alphai.io,
no install, OAuth (no API key to paste), free tier 100 calls/day.
Every story is enriched with per-ticker analysis, a category (14 buckets), and a 1–10 relevance score, so an agent can filter to what actually matters before spending a reasoning token.
This repo is the public home +
server.jsonmanifest of the hosted AlphaAI MCP server (the listing on Smithery, Glama, mcp.so, the MCP Registry and Awesome MCP Servers). The product is AlphaAI — a financial-news platform built for AI agents. There is nothing to self-host: to use it, just connect tohttps://mcp.alphai.io/mcp.
Connect
The server speaks Streamable HTTP at https://mcp.alphai.io/mcp. Add it to any
OAuth-capable MCP client. Claude Code:
claude mcp add --transport http alphai https://mcp.alphai.io/mcpConnecting opens a browser for OAuth 2.1 (DCR + PKCE) — a login, no key to copy-paste. ChatGPT, Claude Desktop / claude.ai, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf and Gemini connect the same way. Or use the one-click listing on Smithery.
