You.org’s MCP server provides real-time web search, AI-powered answers, and content extraction to enable agentic workflows. This server acts as a bridge between your agents and live data sources, letting you compose powerful AI-powered experiences that can fetch current information, reason over it, and present structured results to users and other systems.

How to use

To run and interact with the MCP server, you start the local MCP process and connect your MCP client to it. You can operate the server in development (STDIO) mode for local testing or in HTTP mode for remote control. Once running, your MCP client can request live web results, AI-generated explanations, and content extraction to fuel workflows, dashboards, or automated agents.
