MarketIntel MCP Server
Enables AI assistants to perform real-time market research including competitor analysis, pricing intelligence, and company overviews via live web search through Tavily API.
README
🚀 MarketIntel MCP Server
An AI-powered Market Research MCP (Model Context Protocol) Server built using FastMCP, Python, Tavily Search API, and Cursor AI. This project enables Large Language Models (LLMs) to access real-time market intelligence through reusable MCP tools, providing structured competitor analysis, pricing insights, product portfolio mapping, and company research.
📌 Project Overview
MarketIntel is a custom MCP server that exposes market research capabilities as reusable tools. It integrates with the Tavily Search API to retrieve live web data and allows AI assistants (such as Cursor AI) to generate structured market intelligence reports.
The project demonstrates how Model Context Protocol (MCP) enables AI applications to securely interact with external services while maintaining a standardized interface.
