Obsidian Regulatory MCP

The verified, tier-0 regulatory data layer for your AI. Connect Claude, ChatGPT, or Cursor to official regulatory data, with a source, date, and status on every answer.

Website MCP Free tier License

Obsidian Regulatory MCP is a Model Context Protocol server that gives AI assistants real-time access to verified regulatory data from 850+ official, tier-0 sources across 50+ jurisdictions (Chemicals, ESG, Life Sciences). It is the missing data layer that stops AI from hallucinating on regulation.

  • ๐ŸŒ Website and access: https://obsidianri.com/mcp

  • ๐ŸŸข Status: live. Sign in with Obsidian (OAuth 2.1), no API key. Free tier, no credit card.


Why this exists

Frontier models reason brilliantly but guess on regulation: hallucinated citations, stale texts, and no way to tell a draft from a law in force. In compliance, a confident wrong answer is a liability.

The fix is not a smarter model, it is a verified source of truth the model can call. You already have the intelligence. Obsidian brings the data.
