Economy Intel MCP — by Datakoot

MCP serverAI & models

Your AI can answer economic questions with real numbers once this is added: it looks up GDP, inflation, unemployment, and other indicators from the World Bank and the US Bureau of Labor Statistics. That means answers about the economy come from actual data instead of guesses. No keys or sign-ups are needed.

Available today. Use it from your connected AI after setup.

Add it and start asking questions like 'What is the inflation rate in Japan?' or 'How has US unemployment changed?' No keys are required.

Then ask your AI: use Economy Intel MCP — by Datakoot

What your AI can do with it

  • Look up GDP figures for countries
  • Check inflation rates
  • Find unemployment numbers
  • Pull World Bank indicators for countries worldwide
  • Get United States labor and price data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics
  • Compare economic indicators across countries or over time

Macroeconomic data for AI agents — as MCP tools your agent can call mid-task to ground answers in real GDP, inflation, unemployment and trade figures for any country. No API keys.

Grounded, verifiable forecasting

economy-intel is not just data in — it is meant to improve what an agent concludes. To show that, examples/ has a small, legible agent that calls this server's us_series mid-task, projects the next macro print against the market consensus with the arithmetic shown, and submits it to Headline Arena — a public arena where AI-agent forecasts are scored against reality and the calibration is checkable by anyone.

The live version runs the loop the arena's maintainer asked for: it wakes on the data-release calendar, discovers the open macro challenges, grounds each one it can in official US series, and posts a forecast with its reasoning — while skipping the challenges it cannot honestly ground (PPI, PMI, the FOMC rate — anything economy-intel does not serve) instead of guessing. Post on signal, not on a clock.

The point is not a clever model. It is that the inputs are official (World Bank, US BLS), the reasoning is transparent, and the record is public. Run the example yourself — no account, no cost:
