How to Use the Zoopla MCP in Pydantic AI
Use Zoopla real estate data with Pydantic AI for type-safe, validated Python agents.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Zoopla MCP to Pydantic AI
Create your Vinkius account to connect Zoopla to Pydantic AI and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Retrieve and Validate Property Listings
The `property_listings` tool provides a list of properties for sale or rent in a defined area. When using Pydantic AI, the agent validates every returned field against your schema. This means if the API sends bad data, your agent fails loud—no corrupted fields. This type-safety is critical when building mission-critical agents that rely on correct real estate details.
Analyze Area Metrics with Pydantic AI
The `zed_index` tool retrieves the Zoopla Zed-Index, giving a validated average property value for an area. Because of Pydantic's validation layer, you know exactly what numeric type and range that index will be in. Similarly, calling `average_sold_prices` ensures that the sold price data you receive is correctly typed before your agent processes it.
Map Local Area Statistics via MCP Server
Need visual proof? The `local_info_graphs` tool returns URLs for graphs showing local area statistics. Your agent treats these URLs as validated strings, making them reliable inputs for other services. Furthermore, combining this with the street-level data from `property_rich_list` allows your agent to generate highly structured reports where every piece of information is guaranteed correct.
