What is the NotCo MCP Server?

Connect your AI agent directly to Giuseppe, NotCo’s proprietary Food Tech AI platform. Accelerate your B2B food research and development by commanding Giuseppe through natural language.

What you can do

  • AI Formulation Generation — Command Giuseppe to analyze the molecular structure of an animal product and generate a plant-based blueprint using combinations from a database of over 300,000 plants
  • Ingredient Search — Browse and retrieve the molecular, sensory, and functional profiles of thousands of plant extracts and proteins
  • Flavor & Texture Matching — Use AI computational models to find plant compounds that replicate specific volatile molecules, aromas, and mouthfeels
  • Nutritional Label Prediction — Run predictive algorithms on custom plant mixtures to estimate the final nutritional values of a recipe before entering the lab
  • Cost Estimation — Predict the theoretical mass-production cost of an AI-generated formula based on global commodity pricing

How it works

1. Subscribe to this server
2. Enter your NotCo API Key (partner access required)
3. Start exploring formulations from Claude, Cursor, or your preferred MCP client

Who is this for?

  • Food Scientists & R&D Teams — instantly query molecular matches without switching contexts
  • Product Formulators — test theoretical plant-based recipes in a virtual environment before lab prototyping
  • Strategic Food Partners — monitor project progress and evaluate AI-generated prototypes rapidly

Why Claude Code?

Claude Code registers NotCo as an MCP server in a single terminal command. Once connected, Claude Code discovers all 14 tools at runtime and can call them headlessly. ideal for CI/CD pipelines, cron jobs, and automated workflows where NotCo data drives decisions without human intervention.

  • Single-command setup: claude mcp add registers the server instantly. no config files to edit or applications to restart

  • Terminal-native workflow means MCP tools integrate seamlessly into shell scripts, CI/CD pipelines, and automated DevOps tasks

  • Claude Code runs headlessly, enabling unattended batch processing using NotCo tools in cron jobs or deployment scripts

  • Built by the same team that created the MCP protocol, ensuring first-class compatibility and the fastest adoption of new protocol features

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

01

Can I use this to generate a formula for a new plant-based meat?

Yes! Use the create_formulation tool to instruct Giuseppe to model a specific animal product (e.g., 'Target: Pulled Pork'). You can pass constraints like 'no soy' or 'must contain pea protein'. Giuseppe will return a mathematically generated formula combining plant extracts that mimic the target's molecular profile.

02

How does Giuseppe match specific flavors?

The search_flavor_matches tool analyzes NotCo's proprietary database. Instead of searching for 'beef flavor', Giuseppe searches for the specific volatile molecular compounds that create the beef flavor, and then finds combinations of seemingly unrelated plants (like pineapple and cabbage) that, when combined mathematically, replicate that exact molecular behavior.

03

Can I predict the cost of a new formulation before making it?

Absolutely. Once Giuseppe generates a formulation, you can pass its ID to the estimate_cost tool. The API cross-references the required plant ingredients with global B2B commodity pricing databases to give you an estimated per-kilogram cost for mass production.

04

How do I add an MCP server to Claude Code?

Run claude mcp add --transport http "" in your terminal. Claude Code registers the server and discovers all tools immediately.

05

Can Claude Code run MCP tools in headless mode?

Yes. Claude Code supports non-interactive execution, making it ideal for scripts, cron jobs, and CI/CD pipelines that need MCP tool access.

06

How do I list all connected MCP servers?

Run claude mcp in your terminal to see all registered servers and their status, or type /mcp inside an active Claude Code session.
