Why it matters

Your data, through a conversation

The MCP turns SmartScout's market intelligence into something you can simply ask about — inside the AI tools you already use every day.

Know your AI visibility rate

Skip the filters and exports. Ask for brands, ASINs, categories, or trends the way you'd ask a teammate.

Live SmartScout data

Responses pull from the same market intelligence powering the platform — sellers, brands, revenue estimates, and more.

Analysis in the flow

Let your LLM reason over the data — compare, summarize, and surface opportunities without switching tools.
