Works with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and more

The Model Context Protocol standardizes how applications expose capabilities to LLMs. Instead of operating in isolation, your AI gains direct access to external platforms, live data, and real-world actions through secure, standardized connections.

This connection provides 10 powerful capabilities that interface natively with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and other compatible AI platforms. No middleware. No custom integration required.

Gathering intelligence usually means switching five different tabs just to piece together a picture.

Today, researching one company requires jumping between LinkedIn for contacts, SEC filings for financial data, and news archives for sentiment. You copy-paste entity names into multiple dashboards, spending hours cross-referencing dates just to build a single timeline of events.

With this MCP, you tell your agent what you want. It executes the necessary searches and pulls all that disparate information—the contacts, the financials, the news signals—and structures it for you in one output.

The KnowFirst MCP provides entity data analysis.

You never have to manually search across different intelligence categories. The system can pull raw data points (`list_entity_data_points`) and then use that information to build a relationship map (`get_entity_connections`), all automatically in sequence.

It’s not just compiling facts; it's revealing the hidden lines of connection between those facts, giving you a true view of the entity's operational ecosystem.

What your AI can actually do with this

Need to know what's actually happening with a target company? This MCP connects your agent to KnowFirst, providing deep intelligence profiling. You can search for any entity to pull a complete data profile, see which sources built that information, and even map out all the people and companies connected to it.

If you suspect something is changing—say, an acquisition or a shift in leadership—you don't have to guess; you audit historical changes on that specific entity. For broader views, you can pull current market trends by category, letting you understand where a whole sector is moving. All this complex data gathering gets organized through Vinkius, so your agent pulls it all together using natural language commands.

Questions you might have

How do I find out what an entity was doing last year using KnowFirst? +

Run the audit_entity_changes tool. This function looks back at historical records for a specific ID, showing you exactly how their data or status has changed over time.

Is there a way to see all the data sources used in a profile? +

Yes. Use list_intelligence_sources. This function explicitly lists every source—like Public Records or Social Signals—that contributed information to the entity's intelligence profile.

What if I need data on a brand new, unlisted company? +

Start by using search_intelligence_entities. This tool searches across the entire database and helps you find a unique ID for entities that might not be obvious to search for directly.

Can I ask questions that mix market trends with specific company data? +

Yes. You can combine tools like get_market_intelligence_trends with get_entity_profile. For instance, you can see if a target company's sector is currently surging or declining.

If I use `list_entity_data_points`, what format will the raw intelligence data be in? +

The data comes back as a structured JSON object. This means you'll get clearly labeled fields for every piece of information, making it easy to process into your own databases or scripts.

When running complex reports via `query_custom_intelligence`, are there any rate limits or throttling concerns? +

KnowFirst handles high-volume queries through an asynchronous job queue. If you submit too many requests too quickly, the MCP will return a pending job ID, which you can then poll to retrieve your results later.

When using `get_entity_connections`, can I specify which type of dependency (e.g., parent company or strategic partner) I want to map? +

Yes, the tool allows you to filter connections by relationship type. This means you won't just get a flood of links; you can specifically target the most critical relationships for your analysis.

Can I use `search_intelligence_entities` to look for entities based on shared keywords, rather than just unique IDs? +

Absolutely. While it primarily searches by ID, you can pass keyword parameters through the tool's query fields. This lets you find multiple potential matches even if you don't have a specific entity name or identifier.

How do I find an Entity ID? +

Use the search_intelligence_entities tool with the name of the company or person. It will return a list of matches with their IDs.

What kind of signals does KnowFirst track? +

KnowFirst tracks financial events, leadership changes, social media mentions, news sentiment, and operational shifts.

Can I query raw data points? +

Yes, use the list_entity_data_points tool to see the underlying observations recorded for any entity.
