MCP

Connect AI Dealigence directly to your agent.

A live MCP server at aidealigence.com/mcp — works with or without a trailing slash, authenticated with the same API key as the REST API. Eight tools, thin wrappers over the same research engine — no separate contract to learn.

Eight tools, composable

Small and specific rather than one do-everything call — a model can reason about when to use each one.

resolve_objective

Find the people most capable of achieving a business objective.

objective (string, required), location (string, optional), max_results (integer, default 5)

find_decision_maker

Find the most relevant decision maker inside a specified company.

company (string, required), objective (string, required)

resolve_company

Find companies relevant to a business objective.

objective (string, required), market (string, optional)

resolve_function

Determine which organisational function owns an objective.

objective (string, required), company (string, optional)

verify_person

Verify whether a person currently holds a specified role.

person_id (string, required)

get_evidence

Retrieve the evidence behind a recommendation.

evidence_id (string, required)

find_access_route

Find a legitimate route to reach the recommended person.

person_id (string, required)

compare_targets

Compare several candidates by relevance, authority, and access.

person_ids (array of strings, required)

Auth today is a bearer API key, the same one the REST API uses — a working model, not a placeholder. Full OAuth 2.1 authorization (client registration, delegated end-user consent) is the documented next step once there’s a concrete reason to need it.

Troubleshooting

A tool call that fails returns a real MCP tool error (is_error: true on the result, not a bare crash) with the same structured error body the REST API uses — see the error codes for what each one means. A malformed request to the server itself (missing headers, invalid JSON-RPC) returns a standard JSON-RPC error object instead, before any tool even runs.

401/403 almost always means the Authorization header didn’t reach the server — check your client config passes it exactly as shown above, and that a bridge process like mcp-remote is actually forwarding --header rather than dropping it.
