Why Profitelligence?

Traditional financial APIs return mountains of raw data. Your AI agent burns through tokens parsing CSVs, making repeated calls, and piecing together context. Profitelligence is different.

We provide semantically dense, LLM-optimized responses designed for AI agents:

Traditional MCP Servers	Profitelligence MCP
Many narrow tools (10-20+)	7 powerful tools with rich filtering
Raw data dumps	Pre-contextualized intelligence
Multiple calls to answer one question	One call, complete answer
Token-heavy responses	Optimized for token efficiency
Complex tool orchestration	Agent has full control

What You Get

• Insider Trading Intelligence — Form 4 filings with entity search ("find Warren Buffett's trades")
• SEC Filing Analysis — AI-summarized 8-K events with impact scoring
• Market Data — Company profiles, OHLC prices, sector/industry context
• Economic Indicators — Federal Reserve (FRED) data for macro context
• Multi-Signal Analysis — Opportunity scoring that combines insider activity + SEC events + price action (PRO)

Safe by Design

This MCP server is a thin, stateless layer over Profitelligence's REST APIs:

• ✅ Read-only — No ability to modify your account or execute trades
• ✅ No data storage — Responses flow through, nothing is cached locally
• ✅ Open source — Audit the code yourself, it's ~2000 lines of Python
• ✅ Your API key — You control access; revoke anytime from your dashboard
